The effects of oxygen mole fraction on the static properties of pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) were investigated. Sample coupon tests using a calibration chamber were conducted for polymer-based PSP (PHFIPM-PSP), polymer/ceramic PSP (PC-PSP), and anodized-aluminium PSP (AA-PSP). The oxygen mole fraction was set to be between 0.1-100% and the ambient pressure was set to be between 0.5-140 kPa. The localized Stern-Volmer coefficient $B_{\rm local}$ once increases and then decreases as the oxygen mole fraction increases. The value of $B_{\rm local}$ depends on both ambient pressure and oxygen mole fraction, but the effect of this parameter can be characterized as a function of the partial pressure of oxygen. The value of $B_{\rm local}$ of AA-PSP and PHFIPM-PSP, which are low-pressure type and relatively low-pressure type PSP, have a peak at the relatively low partial pressure of oxygen, and $B_{\rm local}$ of PC-PSP, which are atmospheric pressure type PSP, has a peak at the relatively high partial pressure of oxygen. The peak of the intensity change with respect to pressure fluctuation proportional to the ambient pressure $S_{\mathcal{PR}}$ appears at the lower partial pressure of oxygen than that of $B_{\rm local}$. This is because the intensity of PSP becomes quite low at the high partial pressure of oxygen even if $B_{\rm local}$ is higher. Hence, an optimal partial oxygen mole fraction exists depending on the type of PSP and ambient pressure range of the experiment, and its optimal value can be found based on the partial pressure of oxygen.
