Most cell walls are porous to water and other materials but are strong enough to help plants stand against gravity and wind.
Asbestos is a porous material and can absorb water.

porous
Electrodes to transmit current Water Ions (NaCl) to help transmit current
Porous means, containing pores ie, small or tiny hole, while non-porous means, without pores or holes.

I think it is because metals are non-porous, with more dense and compacted molecules compared with water, wood or other porous materials.

Materials that are porous, that is, that have pores or open areas within the material where gases or liquids can enter, will absorb and hold water as well as other materials. A good example is a sponge, which absorbs water through pores or openings and holds it inside.
polystyrene along with other porous (objects which have a lot of air in them) such as Styrofoam water, wood and other materials are insulators, not conductors.
Porous rocks absorb water. Anything that can absorb water would not be good at containing it.
