Principle Routes of Exposure
Eyes. Skin. Inhalation. Ingestion.
Potential health effects
Eye: Can cause moderate irritation, burning sensation, tearing, redness, and swelling. Skin: Can cause skin irritation; itching, redness, rashes, hives, burning, and swelling. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry the skin. Symptoms may include redness, burning, drying and cracking of skin, and skin burns. Inhalation: Respiratory tract irritant. High concentration may cause dizziness, headache, and anesthetic effects. Ingestion: Causes irritation, a burning sensation of the mouth, throat and gastrointestinal tract and abdominal pain. The material can get into the lungs (aspiration) during swallowing or vomiting Ingestion causes severe swelling, severe damage to the delicate tissue and danger of perforation. Aspiration of material into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, which may be fatal.
Potential chronic health
Excessive overexposure to styrene has been found to cause central nervous system effects, effects on hearing, mild effects on color vision and respiratory tract damage. Prolonged and repeated occupational overexposure to solvents have been associated with permanent blood, bone marrow, brain and nervous system damage according to published reports. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. Signs/Symptoms: Overexposure can cause headaches, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. Target Organs: Eyes. Skin. Respiratory system. Digestive system. Central nervous system. Aggravation of Pre-Existing Styrene overexposure may aggravate pre-existing disorders of the central nervous system, hearing, Conditions: vision, and respiratory system.
