flammable & combustible
Mudah terbakar


Explanation:
Menurut pendapat saya, dalam perbendaharaan kata Bahasa Indonesia hampir tidak ada perbedaan antara "flammable" dan "combustible". Kalau diterjemahkan artinya menjadi "mudah terbakar".

Dalam konteks di atas dapat diterjemahkan sebagai berikut:
flammable gases = Gas mudah terbakar
combustible substances = Bahan (kimia) mudah terbakar


Untuk perbedaan secara ilmiah "banget", bisa dilihat pada link referensi di bawah.
"The heat of combustion of substances is calculated by a method called calorimetry."

"To calculate the flammability of a substance/ material, it has to be passed through the process of fire testing."


Semoga membantu ^^

Asker: saya sepertinya lebih cocok kalau "combustible" dipadankan dengan "mudah terbakar" mengingat penerjemahan internal combustion engine = mesin pembakaran dalam. Anyway, terima kasih urun diskusinya pak Wiwit.

flammable & combustible
mudah tersambar api & mudah terbakar


Explanation:
Flammable is a material that can easily catch fire under normal circumstances and with the help of minimal ignition source. Just a spark is sufficient enough. An ideal example of flammable substances is propane.

Combustible materials can include anything that will burn. Propane can also be placed in the same category but more vigorous conditions are required for an ideal combustible material to burn. A simple spark is definitely not enough. Paper or wood can be ideal examples of combustible materials.
