The spin transport inside an odd-frequency spin-triplet superconductor differs from that of a conventional superconductor due to its distinct symmetry properties. We show that the peculiar nature of the density of states allows for an even larger spin injection than in the normal-state. Moreover, when the odd-frequency pairing inherits its temperature dependence from a conventional superconductor through the proximity effect, the density of states can transition from gapless to gapped as the temperature decreases. At the transition point, there is a massive spin accumulation inside the odd-frequency superconductor. While the spin-flip scattering time is known to decrease below the superconducting transition temperature in conventional superconductors, we find that the same is true for the spin-orbit scattering time in odd-frequency superconductors. This renormalization is particularly large for energies close to the gap edge, if such a gap is present.
