If the water content of the plastic initially obtained by reaction with the polyisocyanate plays a subordinate role because en does not interfere or because it can be easily removed by drying, then only weakly alkaline sodium silicate can be used, of which, for example, 20-35% by weight .-% solutions prepared. Preferably, however, 32-54% by weight silicate solutions are used which only have sufficient alkalinity to have the viscosity of less than 500 poise required for problem-free processing. Ammonium silicate solutions, for example solutions of guanidine silicate, can also be used, but these are less preferred. It can be real or colloidal solutions.

• silicate solutions with a 30-35% by weight content are preferred for the production of light-pored foams in order to achieve low viscosities, sufficiently long reaction times and low densities. Even when using finely divided inorganic fillers in larger quantities, silicate solutions with a content of 30-35% are preferred.
• alkali metal silicate solutions which can be used according to the invention can be found in James G. Vail 'Soluble Silicates, their properties and uses', Reinhold Publishing Corporation, New York 1952.

• Inert mineral fillers or also hydraulic mineral binders are particularly suitable here, in particular aqueous suspensions of fillers which have a solids content of between 20 and 80% by weight. If the dry fillers already meet the particle size criteria according to the invention (at least 50% by weight less than 50 microns), they can be mixed directly with water to form a suspension. If the particles are coarser, an aqueous coarse suspension of the fillers can also be converted into a fine suspension usable according to the invention by known methods of wet grinding.
• Particularly preferred aqueous suspensions are those which are stable to sedimentation and show viscous, rapid flow behavior, as is known, for example, from paper coating slips. To produce such filler suspensions, it is therefore advantageous to use the methods known for the preparation of such coating slips.
• Suspensions which are produced with the addition of 0.05 to 20% by weight, based on filler, of one or more of the additives listed under 4.5 and 6 are particularly preferred. At the same time, although less economical from the point of view of economy, the use of surface-modified and thus hydrophilized fillers is, which generally eliminates the need for additives.
• the filler suspension is stabilized by organic additives, its amount should not exceed 5%, based on filler, in order not to deteriorate the fire behavior of the inorganic-organic plastics.

• a mixing device e.g. a screw within this feed line

• cement generally requires suspension in water or aqueous alkali silicate immediately before processing with the isocyanate component, so that the setting process and any gelation process possibly caused by cement expediently take place in the finished plastic.
• the filler suspensions used preferably have a viscosity above 100 cP in order to ensure rheological behavior which is favorable for processing. On the other hand, they should be easy to flow and should in no way have crumbly consistency. A viscosity of 10,000 cP is preferably not exceeded. A good and very intimate relationship Mixing with the polyisocyanate in conventional processing equipment should be ensured. On the other hand, the content of fillers in the aqueous suspension should be as high as possible in order not to introduce more water than is absolutely necessary into the plastic. Depending on the particle size and the shape of the filler particles, the filler concentration is between 20 and 80%. A content of 30-70% is preferred. Lower concentrations generally have to be chosen if non-spherical fillers are also used, such as asbestos, talc, clays or special iron oxides.
