> 高温の鉄板には、垂らした水さえも弾け散る。

I looked up in a few dictionaries but I don't find the word anywhere. How
come?

What does 弾け散る mean?
散る is used with various motion verbs and forms intransitive compound verbs. As
far as I can remember for now, it almost always adds the meaning of "for
fragments/particles to scatter". Relatively common ones are:

  * (水などが) [飛び散る](https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/jn/159954/meaning/m0u/%E9%A3%9B%E3%81%B3%E6%95%A3%E3%82%8B/)
  * (爆発などで物が) 砕け散る
  * (花びらや雪が) 舞い散る

And uncommon ones found on BCCWJ are:

  * (煙が) 流れ散る
  * (鳥の羽が) 羽ばたき散る

The only exception on BCCWJ was (戦場で兵士が)果て散る, where both 果てる and 散る mean "to
perish" or "to die a noble death".
