How does spray polyurethane foam compare with glass fiber batts and blown-in cellulose?

Glass fiber batts will not stop air leakage (it might filter out some dirt and dust). Blown-in cellulose will slow down air leakage. Spray polyurethane foam will stop air leakage.dead.

Glass fiber batts have an R-value of about 3.5 (1 inch thickness). Blown-in cellulose has and R-value of about 3 to 4 (1 inch thickness). Spray applied polyurethane foam has an R-value of 6.7 to 7 (1 inch thickness).

Glass fiber batts can sag over time; blown-in cellulose can settle over time; both situations leave sections uninsulated and you'll feel colder because of it. Spray polyurethane foam completely adheres to wood and sheathing and is rigid; the result is a permanent barrier to heat loss and air entry. Spray polyurethane foam will add strength and rigidity to your house.

Class fiber batts and blown-in cellulose will not. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
