Difference between Explosive and Combustible

EXPLOSIVE vs COMBUSTIBLE: NOUN

A chemical substance that undergoes a rapid chemical change (with the production of gas) on being heated or struck
A substance, especially a prepared chemical, that explodes or causes explosion.
A plosive.
The principal classes of explosive substances are: gunpowder
Nitroglycerin and its compounds, the most important being dynamite
Gun-cotton and similar nitro-substitution compounds
Picric acid and the picrates
Fulminates
Sprengel safety-mixtures
Nitrate mixtures other than gunpowder, and chlorate mixtures. There are many varieties of each class.
Any substance by whose decomposition or combustion gas is generated with such rapidity that it can be used for blasting or in firearms.
In philology, a non-continuous or mute consonant, as k, t, p. Also explodent.
An explosive agent; a compound or mixture susceptible of a rapid chemical reaction, as gunpowder, TNT, dynamite, or nitro-glycerine.
A sound produced by an explosive impulse of the breath; (Phonetics) one of consonants p, b, t, d, k, g, which are sounded with a sort of explosive power of voice. [See Guide to Pronunciation, √ 155-7, 184.]
Explosive substance.

A substance that may be set on fire, or which is liable to take fire and burn.
A substance that will take fire and burn: as, wood and coal are combustibles; the building was full of combustibles. See combustion.
A substance that ignites and burns readily.
A substance that can be burned to provide heat or power
A material that is capable of burning.

Pertaining to or of the nature of explosion; tending or liable to explode, or to cause explosion: as, the explosive force of gunpowder; explosive mixture; explosive paroxysms of nerve-force.
In philology, involving in utterance the breach of a complete closure of the organs; not continuous; mute; forming a complete vocal stop: as, an explosive consonant. See II., 2.

Hence Easily excited; fiery; irascible; inflammable: said of persons.
Capable of taking fire and burning; capable of undergoing combustion: as, wood and coal are combustible.
