Abstract: A stable dispersion of melamine in polyol components comprising at least one relatively high molecular weight compound containing at least two reactive hydrogen atoms and, if desired, low molecular weight chain extenders and/or crosslinkers, blowing agents, catalysts, flame retardants and also further auxiliaries and/or additives is prepared by using the melamine in combination with at least one amine and at least one organic and/or modified organic isocyanate. Such a dispersion can be used for producing flame-resistant polyurethane foams.

Abstract: A homogeneous, demixing-stable polyol component comprising at least two relatively high molecular weight compounds containing at least two reactive hydrogen atoms and, if desired, low molecular weight chain extenders and/or crosslinkers and also, if desired, blowing agents, catalysts and further auxiliaries and/or additives is prepared by adding at least one amine and at least one organic and/or modified organic isocyanate to this component.This polyol component is useful for producing polyurethanes, in particular compact and foamed polyurethanes.

Abstract: A process for preparing a homogeneous polyol component which is stable to separation and consists of at least one compound of relatively high molecular weight having at least two reactive hydrogen atoms and low-molecular-weight chain extenders and/or crosslinkers and, if desired, of blowing agents, catalysts and other auxiliaries and/or additives comprises the addition to this component of at least one amine and at least one organic and/or modified organic isocyanate; the invention also provides the corresponding polyol component which is stable to separation.The use of this polyol component for preparing PUR, in particular compact or foamed PUR, is also described.
