  2. Jet fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_fuel

    Furthermore, the range of molecular mass between hydrocarbons (or different carbon numbers) is defined by the requirements for the product, such as the freezing point or smoke point. Kerosene-type jet fuel (including Jet A and Jet A-1, JP-5, and JP-8) has a carbon number distribution between about 8 and 16 (carbon atoms per molecule); wide-cut ...

  3. JP-10 (fuel) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JP-10_(fuel)

    JP-10 fuel (Jet Propellant 10) is a jet fuel, specified and used mainly as fuel in missiles. Being designed for military purposes, it is not a kerosene based fuel. Developed to be a gas turbine fuel for cruise missiles , [ 1 ] it contains mainly exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (a synthetic fuel ), and adamantane .

  4. Kerosene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerosene

    National and international standards define the properties of several grades of kerosene used for jet fuel. Flash point and freezing point properties are particularly interesting for operation and safety; the standards also define additives for control of static electricity and other purposes.

  5. Fuel system icing inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_System_Icing_Inhibitor

    Simply adding FSII after the fuel has been pumped is therefore not sufficient. As aircraft climbs after takeoff, the temperature drops, and any dissolved water will separate out from the fuel. FSII dissolves itself in water preferentially over the jet fuel, where it then serves to depress the freezing point of water to -43 °C. Since the ...

  6. Tricyclodecane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricyclodecane

    Tricyclodecane (TCD) is an organic compound with the formula C 10 H 16.It is classed as a hydrocarbon. It has two main stereoisomers–the endo and exo forms. [2] Its primary use in the exo form is as a component of jet fuel. [3]

  7. JP-4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JP-4

    It had a lower flash point than JP-1, but was preferred because of its greater availability. It was the primary U.S. Air Force jet fuel between 1951 and 1995. MC-77 is the Swedish military equivalent of JP-4. [3]

  8. JP-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JP-8

    JP-8, or JP8 (for "Jet Propellant 8"), is a jet fuel, specified and used widely by the US military.It is specified by MIL-DTL-83133 and British Defence Standard 91-87, and similar to commercial aviation's Jet A-1, but with the addition of corrosion inhibitor and anti-icing additives.
