JP-4 was a non-conductive liquid, prone to build up static electricity when being moved through pipes and tanks. As it is volatile and has a low flash point, the static discharge could cause a fire. Beginning in the mid-1980s an antistatic agent was added to the fuel to lower the charge buildup and decrease the corresponding risk of fires.
4-0: Logistics Series. Doctrine for joint logistic operations and a framework within which joint logistics can be planned, executed, and controlled effectively. The overarching ideas and principles contained in these publications provide a common perspective from which to plan, execute, and control joint logistics operations. 5-0: Planning Series.
JP-4 and JP-7 (jet propellant-4 and jet propellant-7) are substances that are used by the U.S. Air Force as aircraft fuels. They are also called jet fuel-4 and jet fuel-7. JP-4 is a colorless to straw-colored liquid.
JP 4-0, Joint Logistics, 20 July 2023. This publication is the keystone document of the joint logistics series. It provides fundamental principles and guidance for logistics planning, execution, and assessment in support of joint operations. JP 4-01, The Defense Transportation System, 18 July 2017 - Epub.
The JP-4 and JP-5 fuels, covered by the MIL-DTL-5624 and meeting the British Specification DEF STAN 91-86 AVCAT/FSII (formerly DERD 2452), [30] are intended for use in aircraft turbine engines. These fuels require unique additives that are necessary for military aircraft and engine fuel systems.

JP-4 is a wide-cut fuel; this is a refinery term indicating that it is distilled from crude oil using a broad temperature range and consists of hydrocarbons in a wide range of chain-lengths (4 to 16 carbons long) (Air Force 1989b; CONCAWE 1985).
MILITARY JET FUEL. Shell provides fuels for military use. JP-4 used to be the primary jet fuel for the USAF but was phased out in the 1990s because of safety problems. A few airforces around the world still use it but there is very little production.
JP-4 and JP-7 (jet propellant-4 and jet propellant-7) are substances that are used by the U.S. Air Force as aircraft fuels. They are also called jet fuel-4 and jet fuel-7. JP-4 is a colorless to straw-colored liquid. It smells like gasoline and/or kerosene.
Seventeen hydrocarbons were detected in an analysis of the water-soluble fractions of shale-derived and petroleum-derived JP-4, with the most abundant hydrocarbons being benzene, methylbenzene, and 3-methylhexane (Air Force 1988b).
