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.

• JP-8 or NATO F-34 - Jet A-1 specification fuel containing military fuel additive package: static dissipater additive (SDA), corrosionfuel additive package: static dissipater additive (SDA), corrosion inhibitor/lubricity improver (CI/LI), and fuel system icing inhibitor (FSII) and may contain antioxidant (AO) and metal deactivators (MDA).

This Public Health Statement summarizes the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry’s findings on JP-5, JP-8, and Jet A fuels, tells you about them, the effects of exposure, and describes what you can do to limit that exposure.

These characteristics of JP-8, compared to JP-4, may provide increased human dermal exposure to raw fuel as well as increased respiratory exposure to aerosol phase.

If spontaneous vomiting occurs, lean victim forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Monitor for breathing difficulties. Small amounts of

refine information about JP-8 composition and emissions. The Environics Directorate of the Armstrong Laboratory, formerly the Environics Division of the Air Force Engineering & Services Center, has responded by undertaking a study of JP-8 fuel composition in a series of samples collected from Aerospace Fuels Laboratories operated by the Defense ...

JP-8 is the military equivalent of Jet A-1 with the addition of corrosion inhibitor and anti-icing additives; it meets the requirements of the U.S. Military Specification MIL-T-83188D. It is the dominant military jet fuel grade for NATO airforces.

JET A1 vs JP-8 Differences and Effects on Long Term Use The question has surfaced as to what would be the long term impact to engine/component durability when vehicles/equipment and aircraft...

The subcommittee reviewed information regarding the physical and chemical properties of JP-8, military operational scenarios that might result in exposures to fuel vapors and aerosols, toxicokinetics of the fuel, and epidemiologic and toxicologic evidence of adverse health effects of exposures to JP-8 vapors and aerosols.

JP-8 (Jet Propulsion), is a fuel derived from kerosene with additives for military use. This product must meet the MIL-DTL-83133 specification, which stipulates that during its manufacture, CI/LI (corrosion inhibitor/lubricity improver), FSII (fuel system icing inhibitor) and a SDA (static dissipater additive) additives will be added.
