Potential Health Effects

Eye Contact:Skin: Can dry and defat skin with resultant irritation and possible dermatitis. Styrene may be absorbed through skin in toxic amounts. Eyes: May cause irritation. Liquid splashes may result in more serious injuries. May cause lachrimation (tears).
Skin Absorption:May cause allergic reactions and systematic toxicity.
Inhalation:Dizziness, headaches, breathing difficulties, and possible narcosis. Prolonged exposure to high concentrations may be fatal.
Ingestion:May cause gastrointestinal disturbances, pain, and discomfort.

Section 4 - First-Aid Measures

Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Anesthesia, headache, respiratory irritation, dermatitis, allergic reactions, nausea, and vomiting.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Extinguishing Media: Foam, alcohol foam, CO2, Dry chemical, water fog
Fire Fighting Procedures: Wear self contained breathing apparatus to avoid inhalation of vapors.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Handle as a flammable liquid. Styrene may polymerize at elevated temperatures and cause explosion of closed containers.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate area. Absorb spill with an absorbent material such as sawdust. Prevent material from entering water systems or sewers.
Personal Precautions:
Environmental Precautions:

Section 7 - Handling and Storage

General Handling: Avoid improper addition of promoter or catalyst.
Other Precautions:
Storage: Avoid storage above 100F. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact and inhalation of heated vapors or spray mists.

Personal Protection
Eye/Face Protection: Wear face shield or chemical goggles.
Skin Protection: Wear appropriate impervious gloves to prevent skin contact.
Respiratory Protection: A canister-type respirator must be worn to prevent the inhalationof vapors or spray mists when the TLV or PEL is exceeded.
Hygenic Measures: Wash hands before eating, smoking, or after possible contamination.
Other Protection Measures: Wear protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Eye wash stations and safety showers should be available.
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust. Provide general dilution or local exhaust ventilation to minimize local vapor concentrations in excess of OSHA exposure limits.
