2. Spray foam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

   Open cell spray polyurethane foam insulation being applied in wall cavities. Open cell insulation can be crushed in your hand and has a lower insulation value. Closed cell is rigid to the touch and each air cell is completely sealed. While closed cell foam has a higher R-value, it is more costly to buy. [9] Medium-density closed-cell spray foam ...

3. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

   Open-cell foam is porous, allowing water vapor and liquid water to penetrate the insulation. Closed-cell foam is non-porous, and not moisture-penetrable, thereby effectively forming a semi-permeable vapor barrier. (N.B., vapor barriers are usually required by the Building Codes, regardless of the type of insulation used.

4. Closed-cell PVC foamboard - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-cell_PVC_foamboard

   Closed-cell PVC foam takes solid shape due to its linear structure. However, due to this structure, it is more brittle than open-celled PVC foam. It is available in densities varying from 3 to 25 pounds per cubic foot (0.048 to 0.400 g/cm 3). [3] It has a low flammability rate. [4]

5. Styrofoam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Styrofoam

   Styrofoam insulation extruded polystyrene foam (XPS), owned and manufactured by DuPont. Styrofoam is a genericized trademarked brand of closed-cell extruded polystyrene foam (XPS), manufactured to provide continuous building insulation board used in walls, roofs, and foundations as thermal insulation and as a water barrier.

6. List of polyurethane applications - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_polyurethane...

   Due to the closed-cell nature of rigid polyurethane foams, PUR insulation has minimal water absorption, which coupled with an appropriate cover, makes it a particularly suitable in applications where bacterial growth is a concern. Polyurethane insulation is suitable for insulating pipes with surface temperatures ranging from -196°C to 148°C. [7]
