And again, Sasuke difused the explosions, not the clay. The chakra stays explosive, even if the clay gets destroyed or so. He uses clay because of the hands, yes, but why does he need to use the hands in the first place if chakra infusion has been done without it by so many characters? And again, the explosion is defused because the clay got messed up. An explosion is only there when the clay detonates, so Sasuke is really attacking the clay. If the clay is attacked, it loses its "charge".
