Abstract: A flame-retardant rigid polyurethane foam contains a flame retardant, the foam having a ratio of the maximum peak intensity ratio (P1) of the foam after moist heat treatment of the foam for one week at a temperature of 80° C. and a humidity of 85% to the maximum peak intensity ratio (P2) of the foam before this moist heat treatment of 85% or more (P1/P2x100). The P1 and P2 each refer to the ratio of the maximum peak intensity of 1390 to 1430 cm?1 to the maximum peak intensity of 1500 to 1520 cm?1 when the infrared absorption spectrum is measured at a position 5 to 10 mm from the surface of the foam, and the average intensity of 1900 to 2000 cm?1 is adjusted to zero.

Abstract: Provided is a polyol composition for obtaining a polyurethane foam by reacting the composition with a polyisocyanate compound. The polyol composition contains a polyol, a transition metal compound, and a tertiary amine.
