Abstract: There is disclosed a non-flammable rigid foam on the basis of phenolic resin and furane resin, containing aluminum hydroxide and further components as a filler system. The weight ratio of resin substance:filler substance is at least 1:2.5 and up to 1:3.2 and the bulk density is from 50 kg/m.sup.3 to 450 kg/m.sup.3. The resin compound is the reaction product obtained by the reaction with one another of50-62 weight parts resolic resin0-15 weight parts furanic resin25-40 weight parts furfuryl alcohol0.5-1.

Abstract: The non-flammable rigid foam e.g. used as a building material complies with the requirements of DIN 4102 and which provides a non-toxicity of the combustion fumes according to DIN 53436. It has a mass ratio of resin component: filler of at least 1:2.5 and a bulk density amounting to 50 kg/m.sup.3 to 450 kg/m.sup.3. The resin component is formed by reaction of50-62 mass parts resolic resin0-15 mass parts furane resin25-40 mass parts furfuryl alcohol0.5-11.5 mass parts foam stabilizerincluding 14-17 mass parts per 100 mass parts of resin component plus filler of a curing agent mixture of phosphoric acid, boronhydrofluoric acid, p-toluene sulphonic acid and water. The filler used is a mixture of40-55 mass % aluminium hydroxide10-35 mass parts boric acid2-7 mass parts sodium tetraborate5-10 mass parts manganese dioxide1-5 mass parts copper-II-oxide1-4 mass parts magnesium hydroxysilicate1-2 mass parts aluminium silicate.
