Aviation fuel primarily consists of hydrocarbons derived from petroleum, specifically designed for aircraft engines. The most common types are Jet A and Jet A-1, which are kerosene-based fuels that include additives for stability, anti-icing, and lubricity. These fuels are formulated to provide high energy density, low volatility, and efficient combustion at high altitudes and varying temperatures. Additionally, aviation gasoline (AvGas) is used in piston-engine aircraft and contains different blends of hydrocarbons and additives.
