Exterior use of Homasote

Does anyone have experience using Homasote 440 in a exterior sound deadening application.

not sure if it the same as regular grey homosote...but if so, it will soak up water like a mofo.....

This stuff is supposed to be 100% recycled with non toxic binding agents. Website claims it'll absorb water but won't mold or deteriorate, sounds like a contridiction to me. But I'm looking for a material that will deaden street sound and go up like a fence or siding panel. Clearly I'm working on a tight budget.
