What is Kryptonite made of?
How can Superman be killed?
What can kill Superman?
Yes, unfortunately he can be killed without the use of magic or Kryptonite. Superman was first killed by the Kryptonian abomination named Doomsday during The Death of Superman arc.
The Dark Knight Returns depicts him as having the usual super speed, heat vision, flight, and strength, but it also depicts him as being vulnerable to several things. Kryptonite still harms him, and he is nearly killed at one point by a massive nuclear detonation. Whether this was the result of the blast itself, radiation, or the bomb blocking out the sun, or a combination of those factors, is not made clear.
Green Lantern is lured to a hostage situation at a mine, where he first attempts to negotiate the miners' release, and then attempts to rescue them by force. In the process, one of the hostage takers is able to detonate a bomb, killing all the miners, including a woman that looks a lot like Carol Ferris (who becomes Star Sapphire, and who was the love interest of Hal Jordan, this movie's Green Lantern). This causes Green Lantern to question his ability to do his job to protect the galaxy and those in need, and to doubt his own willpower (the trait that gives Green Lanterns their strength). Little did he know, the mine was filled with thin vapors of a refined form of Scarecrow's fear gas, and the miners were all robots designed to look like humans. From this we can deduce that Green Lantern's weakness is fear, or anything that can shake his will to continue fighting.

Luthor was, in previous continuities, not above using Kryptonite to power many of his exoskeleton weapon systems.
The Adventures of Superman (1952–1958) featured kryptonite in the episodes "Panic in the Sky", "The Defeat of Superman", "Superman Week", "The Deadly Rock", "The Magic Secret", "The Gentle Monster" and "All That Glitters".

The comparative weakness of the Superman character to his Pre-Crisis incarnation was definitively shown during Infinite Crisis. The Superboy-Prime character, endowed with nearly the same power levels as the Silver Age Superman, was capable of defeating large numbers of DC universe heroes, including the Teen Titans and many members of theGreen Lantern Corps. The Modern Era Superman and his Earth 2 counterpart were only able to defeat Superboy-Prime after plunging him through Krypton's red sun, thereby reducing his powers. Power Reduction Superman's strength was reduced to the point where he could still move tremendous amounts, but the character no longer had the ability to move planets.
Kara Zor-El/Supergirl, having been split into two people by Black Kryptonite. Kryptonite’s inherent radioactivity inhibits the absorption of solar energy which Kryptonians use to catalyze their feats of superhuman ability. Not only does it prevent the further absorption of solar energy, it displaces, painfully, said solar energy with Kryptonite radiation causing the immediate loss of a Kryptonian’s superhuman abilities within seconds. Most depictions indicate it was only the core of the planet which was comprised of Kryptonite, though some of the earlier ones indicated any piece of Krypton that came to Earth was considered Kryptonite. Some were exposed to various cosmological effects in the Silver Age, Kryptonite came in a variety of colors.
