Un combustible est par définition un corps se combinant avec l'oxygène, en dégageant de la chaleur grâce à une réaction chimique qui mobilise seulement les électrons périphériques des éléments se combinant. Par extension, on a appelé «combustible nucléaire» une matière qui produit aussi de la chaleur par transformation des noyaux des atomes, en pratique par fission d'atomes lourds, ceux de l'uranium et du plutonium. 4, record 1, French, - combustible%20nucl%C3%A9aire
