Abstract: A process for preparation of a polyurethane-polycarbodiimide foam which comprises reacting a polyol component containing a benzylic ether type phenol resin having hydroxymethyl groups with an organic polyisocyanate component in the presence of an organotin catalyst for urethane formation and a carbodiimidating catalyt. According to this process, it is unnecessary to use fluorine-containing halogenated hydrocarbons as a blowing agent, and blowing on the spot is possible using a spray blowing machine or the like.

Abstract: The present invention provides:a melamine resin foam obtained by foaming a resin composition comprising a melamine/formaldehyde condensate, a blowing agent and an isocyanate,a process for producing the above melamine resin foam, which comprises foaming a resin composition comprising a melamine/formaldehyde condensate, a blowing agent and an isocyanate, anda melamine/formaldehyde condensate used in the production of the above melamine resin foam, which is obtained by reacting melamine and formaldehyde in the presence of a silane coupling agent.The melamine resin foam of the present invention is free from the problems of the prior art, has solved the problem of fragility without impairing the good flame retardancy and low thermal conductivity inherently possessed by melamine resin foams, and causes no danger during the production.
