Mostly kerosene. Answer: The two common designations for jet fuel are Jet A and Jet B Jet A is close to kerosene in its composition with a carbon number id 8 and 16, Jet B tends to be more like naphtha with a carbon number of 5 to 15 to improve its cold weather characteristics. Jet fuels are blended and formulated for specific customer requirements (military and civilian)

Standard jet fuels may contain several additives: * Antioxidants (prevents gum formation) * Antistatic agents (prevent static buildup during fueling) * Corrosion inhibitors * Anti-icing agents * Biocides (some bugs can eat jet fuel and can plug filters)
