This article lists and examines certain physicochemical properties of a number of commercial samples of jet fuels produced in different countries by various companies. The fuels were oxidized in a gasometric unit at 120/sup 0/ and 130/sup 0/C in the presence of dicumyl peroxide (CP) as an oxidation initiator. It is determined that high thermal stability and low content of organic sulfur compounds indicate that the fuels were produced by treating methods that remove heteroorganic trace components that act as natural oxidation inhibitors in straight-run fuels. The kinetic parameters of initiated oxidation of the foreign fuels and the USSR fuels RT and T-6 (which contain Ionol as an antioxidant) are given. It is found that the fuels from Angola and Iraq and the fuels produced by Shell have higher oxidizabilities at elevated temperatures in comparison with the USSR fuels.
