96 kg/m3 - Nice. Twice the density of XPS gives it better strength of course. But only half the compressive strength of similar density PVC foam (on paper).

And the shear strength is only 0.55MPA, which is 1/3 of H100. So on paper it doesn't look ideal. But maybe good enough.

Would be interesting to compare XPS, PIR, PVC foam in compression, tension and shear. Maybe the cheaper products will not be as inferior as it looks on paper. 

I compared my Finnfoam samples to low density PVC foam in a vice, just like the Trinardo guy, with the same result. But I'm a bit too busy at work, so I haven't played that much with it yet.

I am curious what you got.

The just updated this in the last few hours to the proper data. I don't know any XPS that can meet these specs.
