It contains Polystyrene foam sheets embedded with zeolites to absorb offgassing products along with buffers (Calcium carbonate) to neutralize harmful acidic vapors. The rigid, strong, flat panels are water-resistant and dimensionally stable. Direct sunlight will cause bleaching and degradation of any unprotected foam.
