Le terme "projections" est nettement préférable à celui de "éclaboussures". "Éclabousser" veut dire "couvrir d'un liquide salissant qu'on a fait rejaillir accidentellement", et "éclaboussure" désigne une "goutte d'un liquide salissant qui a rejailli". Cet aspect "salissant" ne convient pas ici. Et "projections" se retrouve dans de bons ouvrages en français (dont les normes de l'AFNOR). 1, record 1, French, - v%C3%AAtements%20de%20protection%20contre%20les%20projections%20de%20produits%20chimiques
