The highest VOD known to me is Octanitrocubane molecular formula: C8(NO2)8) at roughly 10,100 meters per second- however, it is at lab stage, and not in production. CL-20 is in limited production for research, with a VOD of 9,400 m/s. In broad production and use, PETN, used in detonating cord, has a VOD of 8,400 m/s. While VOD is an indicator of brissance (shattering effect) it does not always designate the highest energy per gram of explosive.

Mount St. Helens is generally regarded as an explosive volcano, but like most stratovolcanoes, it can produce both explosive and non-explosive eruptions.
When it explodes!
Non-explosive and Explosive
Non-explosive volcanoes will have low concentrations of gas in the magma.
Non-explosive and Explosive
yes.
explosive and non-explosive
a cinder con volcano is an explosive volcano
Yes. Stratovolcanoes usually alternate between explosive and non-explosive eruptions.
