CPVC plumbing and cured spray foam question

I'm aware that spraying the canned spray foam on CPVC will eat away at the CPVC plastic, but curious if there is anything to worry about once the foam is fully cured? Basically, I have a CPVC livewell pipe that runs through an area with floatation foam. The foam cured long ago, and has been cut out to accommodate the pipe, so the pipe is touching the cured foam. I'm assuming this is okay, since the solvents in the spray foam have evaporated, but just thought I would check anyways.

So ahhh where did you read that cause and effect? Just asking.
If that's the case and someone sprayed the foam you are talking about around cpvc didn't you just answer your own question?

Thanks Zool. I really didn't have the science to explain that but I didn't think it would be a problem. U Da Man.

There seems to be conflicting info about this. I am adding the livewell to the boat now, so I carved out the space for the cpvc pipe. I'm assuming it will be fine, just wanted to double check though.
