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.[citation needed] However, it is usually classed as a single component fuel, as well as a hydrocarbon.[2] It is produced by catalytic hydrogenation of dicyclopentadiene and then isomerization.

It superseded JP-9, which is a mixture of norbornadiene-based RJ-5 fuel, tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene and methylcyclohexane, because of a lower temperature service limit and about four times lower price.[3] Since the lack of volatile methylcyclohexane makes its ignition difficult, a separate priming fluid PF-1 with about 10-12% of this additive is required for the engine start-up.[3] Its main use is in the Tomahawk missiles.[4]

The Russian equivalent is called detsilin.

Chemical properties of JP-10 fuel

Uses

JP-10 absorbs heat energy, so is endothermic with a relatively high density of 940 kg/m3. It has a low freezing point of less than −110 °C (−166 °F) and the flash point is 130 °F (54 °C). The high energy density of 39.6 MJ/L makes it ideal for military aerospace applications - its primary use. The ignition and burn chemistry has been extensively studied.[8][9][10] The exo isomer also has a low freezing point.[11][12] Its other properties have also been studied extensively.[13][14][15][16][17]

Even though its uses are mainly for the military, the relatively high cost has meant research has been undertaken to find lower costs routes including the use of cellulosic materials.[18]

Further research

Current and past areas of research focus on:

  • The pyrolysis and kinetics of the fuel.[19][20]
  • Catalytic addition of nanoparticles such as those based on cerium(IV) oxide.[21]
  • Catalysis for the endo to exo isomerisation.[22][23]
  • Use of additives in JP-10 for various enhancements.[24][25]
