Ibhodi ye-XPS yogwebu, ebizwa ngokuba yi-polystyrene extrusion ibhodi yeplastiki (i-XPS emfutshane) inesakhiwo esingenasiphako se-alveolate ye-pore. Imisebenzi yayo efana nokuxinana, ukufunxwa kwamanzi, i-coefficient yokuqhuba ubushushu kunye ne-coefficient yokutyhutyha umphunga njalo njalo kunenzuzo ngaphezu kwezo zezinye ibhodi kwizinto zokulondoloza ubushushu kwaye zineempawu zokuqina okuqinileyo, izinto ezikhanyayo, ukukhanya kwemoya, i-anticorrosion, ukumelana nokuguga, iindleko eziphantsi, njl. Isetyenziswe ngokubanzi kwiinkalo zokugcinwa kobushushu kunye nokugquma ubushushu kushishino lokwakha, ukumelana neqabaka kuhola wendlela, kaloliwe, kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya, kwisikwere kunye nokufakwa kwendlu. Ivunyiwe ngokubanzi kunye neyona nto ilungileyo yokugcina ubushushu kwimarike okwangoku.
