In this work, the combustion behaviors of three kinds of polymer and composite materials used as interior materials of metro trains, including PVC floorcloth, PC lampshade and painted aluminum plate, were invested by a cone calorimeter. The tests were performed with the cone calorimeter in State Key Laboratory of Fire Science, University of Science and Technology of China. This cone calorimeter is based on the oxygen consumption method and meets ISO 5660 Standard. We focused on the combustion behaviors of three kinds of polymer and composite materials, which are used as metro train interior materials. This study can provide basic fire information for performance-based fire protection of metro trains. Heat release rate, CO2 and CO concentrations were obtained. The results indicated that PVC floorcloth is the most flammable, and PC lampshade presents the highest both thermal and toxic hazard.
