In this study the oxygen index method was used to compare the duration of flaming and the rate of weight loss at the level of 6 and 9mm panel thicknesses among solid wood, plywood, particleboard, and medium density fiberboard. The obtained results were as follows: 1. In 9mm-thick panels, the combustibility was the largest in lauan solid wood followed by medium density fiberboard. particleboard. and plywood. 2. Medium density fiberboard was burned more easily than plywood in 6mm-thick panels and the higher oxygen concentration was needed as the panel thickness increased. 3. The oxygen indices of 9mm-thick panels were 29.0 in lauan solid wood, 31.4 in medium density fiberboard, 33.0 in particleboard, and 33.4 in plywood and those of 6mm-thick panels were 28.3 in medium density fiberboard and 29.7 in plywood. 4. The rate of weight loss was the largest in lauan solid wood followed by medium density fiberboard, plywood, and particleboard.
