Keep container tightly closed Store locked up Dispose of contents/container to comply with local, state and federal regulations

Other hazards which do not result in classification

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION CAN OCCUR. Spontaneous polymerization will be accompanied by evolution of heat, which may cause release of styrene vapors forming flammable mixtures with air and potential fire or explosion. Closed containers may rupture / explode during runaway Polymerization Product can accumulate electrostatic charges that may cause fire by electrical discharges
