nonexpanding
Stays the same
Nonexpanding describes something that does not expand or increase in size, volume, or scope.
The term appears in technical contexts—nonexpanding foam stays the same size after application, unlike expanding types that grow to fill spaces.
Use nonexpanding caulk around window frames where precision matters.
