Jet fuel is a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines.
It is clear to straw-colored in appearance. The most commonly used fuels for commercial aviation
are Jet A and Jet A-1 which are produced to a standardized international specification. The only other
jet fuel commonly used in civilian turbine-engine powered aviation is Jet B which is used for its enhanced
cold-weather performance.
Jet fuel is a mixture of a large of different hydrocarbons. The range of their sizes
(molecular weights or carbon ) is restricted by the requirements for the product, for example,
the freezing point or smoke point. Kerosene-type jet fuel (including Jet A and Jet A-1) has a carbon
distribution between about 8 and 16 carbon (carbon atoms per molecule); wide-cut or
naha-type jet fuel (including Jet B), between about 5 and 15 carbon
Jet A-1 is the standard specification fuel used in the rest of the world. Jet A-1 has a flash point
higher than 38 °C (100 °F), with an autoignition temperature of 210 °C (410 °F).
