However, there has been no systematic work to date related to the influence of average molecular size of phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin on the decay resistance of wood, especially of hardwoods. Therefore, the goal of this study was to investigate the effect of average molecular size of PF resin treatment on the resistance of beech wood against brown- and white-rot fungi. Four different average molecular weights (\textlessem\textgreaterM\textless/em\textgreater$_{\textrm{w}}$) of resol type resin oligomers (297, 421, 655 and 854 g/mol) were examined. Different weight percent gains (WPGs) in European beech (\textlessem\textgreaterFagus sylvatica\textless/em\textgreater) wood blocks (15 × 20 × 50 mm$^{\textrm{3}}$) were attained through vacuum impregnation using various concentrations of aqueous-PF solutions. Afterwards treated wood blocks passed the leaching and were exposed to brown-rot fungi (\textlessem\textgreaterGloeophyllum trabeum\textless/em\textgreater; \textlessem\textgreaterConiophora puteana\textless/em\textgreater) and white-rot fungi (\textlessem\textgreaterTrametes versicolor\textless/em\textgreater) for 16 weeks. No effect of oligomer size on the resistance against \textlessem\textgreaterG. trabeum\textless/em\textgreater decay of wood blocks was observed, resulting in resin loadings of 7–8%. The required WPG for resistance to brown-rot decay by \textlessem\textgreaterC. puteana\textless/em\textgreater increased slightly with increasing oligomer molecular size: 6, 7, 10 and 11% for wood treated with 297, 421, 655 and 854 g/mol, respectively. The extent of white-rot fungal decay resistance of treated wood was affected by the molecular size of oligomers. Resin loadings of 8% and of 17% against \textlessem\textgreaterT. versicolor\textless/em\textgreater were required to attain similar durability levels for beech wood treated with \textlessem\textgreaterM\textless/em\textgreater$_{\textrm{w}}$ = 297 and 854 g/mol, respectively.\textless/p\textgreater\textless/section\textgreater
