Thanks Jeannie for the clarification. I'm talking about Airkrete.com, 
which is a cementitious foaming insulation, with an R-3.9. According to 
the site, it can be used in situ walls, and various other ways, though 
NOT like polyurethanes (it has to be netted to blow/pour/pump into open 
cavities). I believe it's NOT a portland cement, but rather a magnesium 
silicate extracted from sea water. But I don't know much yet. I do see 
that it's touted as advantageous for the chemically sensitive.
