Isn't MDF more insulating than plywood?

Currently 6mm Plywood at our DIY place is £13.00 a Sheet 8' x 8', 6mm isn't thick enough though is it? I used 6mm to board up the roof and walls.

I saw these http://www.wickes.co.uk/invt/116420

Im assuming this is what you mean by the boards?, Trouble is these would be better to fit if they came in 16 ft lengths, but as an overall covering, 8ft x 8ft sheeting would have the job done in no time.
