Is the IcyNen LD foam <urethane water-absorbent>?

Developed to absorb almost no water! Introducing the results of the polyurethane foam water absorption test.

Polyurethane, like sponge and similar materials, is fundamentally a material that easily absorbs water. When it absorbs water due to rainwater intrusion and retains it, it can cause mold growth, as well as degradation or deformation and shrinkage due to hydrolysis. "Icynene LD Foam" is a spray foam polyurethane developed with a unique cell structure that minimizes water absorption, and the difference is evident. In the North American ASTM D2862 water absorption test results for spray polyurethane, the water absorption rate was only "5%", showing more than a tenfold difference compared to other companies. [Test Overview] ■ Test Name: Spray Polyurethane Water Absorption Test ■ Test Content: - Water is placed in a metal container, and the test specimen is completely submerged in water for 96 hours. Afterward, it is taken out to measure how much water it has absorbed. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Service Areas: Aichi, Gifu, Mie, Shizuoka, the three Hokuriku prefectures (Toyama, Ishikawa, Fukui), Nagano.
