Summary This paper evaluated the wood composite weathering over time step by Markov theory. By the null hypothesis (H0), the panel weathering under the long-term outdoor exposure was determined to be a Markov process. The transition matrix which derived from the practical data can be calculated by program Markov and thus the future outcome of wood composite weathering can be forecasted. Also, the utility of the Markov model was successfully testified from the example of 3-year natural aging waferboard in Ottawa, Saskatoon, Fredericton areas.
