    Abstract: The present invention relates to a rigid polyurethane foam comprising rei nforcing materials and obtainable by mixing (a) isocyanates which have a vis cosity at 25°C of less than 500 mPas with (b) compounds having groups which are reactive toward isocyanates, (c) blowing agents comprising water, (d) ca talysts and, if appropriate, (e) further additives to form a reaction mixtur e and applying the reaction mixture to a reinforcing material, where the com pounds (b) having groups which are reactive toward isocyanates comprise a po lyetherol (b1) having a functionality of 4 or more and a viscosity at 25°C o f 10 000 mPas or less and a polyetherol (b2) having a functionality of 3 or less and a viscosity at 25°C of 500 mPas or less. The present invention furt her relates to a process for producing such rigid polyurethane foams and to the use of the rigid polyurethane foams for the insulation of liquefied natu ral gas tanks.
