I had a brief conversation with a plastics engineer friend yesterday. He suggested that reheating and compressing XPS sheets to get a desirable product is going to be tough. The reheating and recooling degrades the polymers properties, the rate of heating and cooling is critical to getting appropriate properties of the polymer, and the process is rather hard to control in the best of circumstances.

The desire for resilient yet high compressive strength are almost diametrically opposed. It was suggested that getting the right combination will take a lot of tweaking.
