VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION 

RESPIRATORY: Respiratory protection approved by NIOSH/MSHA for protection against organic vapors should be used to avoid 

I inhalation of excessive air contaminants. Appropriate respirator selection daponds on the type and magnitude of exposure. 

SKIN: Chemical resistance data for barrier materials used should be determined based on Ihe use of this product. Polyvinyl alcohol, 

and polyethylene protective garments have been recommended lor protection against materials ot this chomlcal class. 

EYE: Employees should be required to wear chemical safety glasses to prevent eye contact. A tace shield 9hould be used when 

appropriate to prevnnt contact with *pi:i«h-*ri materials. 

VENTILATION: local exhaust ventilation should be U3ed to control the amission of air contaminants. Conarui dilution ventilation

PRECAUTIONS TO SE TAKEN IN HANDLING ANO STORAGE: 

Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with the skin. Avoid eye contact. Store in a cool dry area. Do not store in direct sunlight. Work 

with adequate general and local exhaust ventilation 10 minimize exposure to vapors. Bond and ground containers lor transfer of 

this product to prevent static sparks. Styrene vapors are uninhibited and may cause blockago of ventilation venls due to polymerization. Periodic Inspection may be necessary to prevont blockage.

XTINGUISHING MEDIA: 

Use foam, carbon dioxide or chemical fire fighting 

apparatus. 

PECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES 

Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, 

electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Closed 

containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. 

NUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS 

The use of self-contained breathing apparatus is recommended 

for fire fighters. Water spray may be used for cooling 

containers to prevent possible pressure build-up and autoignition or explosion when exposed to extreme heat. 

Avoid spreading burning liquid with water used for cooling. 

SECTION V. HEALTH HAZARD DATA 

HRESHOLD LIMIT VALUE: 

See Section II. 

FFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: 

-- EYES CONTACT: 

Severe irritation, redness, tearing and blurred vision. 

-- SKIN CONTACT: 

Prolonged or repeated exposure can cause moderate irritation, 

defatting and dermatitis. 

-- INHALATION: 

Excessive inhalation of vapors can cause nasal and respiratory 

irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea and headache. 

High concentrations may result in narcosis. (Central Nervous 

System depression) 

-- INGESTION: 

Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and 

diarrhea. Aspiration of material into lungs can cause 

chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal. 

"hronic exposure may cause damage to the Central Nervous System, 

inspiratory System, Lungs, Eyes, Skin, Gastrointestinal Tract, 

-iver, Spleen and Kidneys. 

)THER HEALTH EFFECTS: 

iased upon a re-evaluation of previous negative and equivocal data 

md an increased incidence of lung tumors after oral administration 

Ln young adult mice, the international agency for research on 

:ancer(IARC) has listed styrene among those materials for which 

:here is limited evidence for carcinogenicity in animals. 

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES 

--- EYES CONTACT: 

Flush with clean, lukewarm water for at least 15 minutes, 

occasionally lifting the eyelids. Obtain medical attention. 

--- SKIN CONTACT: 

-Jl 
P.19 

CTION V. HEALTH HAZARD DATA 2878737 (CONT.) 

Remove contaminated clothing. Wash affected skin areas 

thoroughly with soap and water. Wash contaminated clothing 

thoroughly before re-use. 

- INHALATION: 

Remove to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration or administer 

oxygen, if necessary. Call a physician immediately. 

- INGESTION: 

Keep person warm, quiet and get immediate medical attention. 

Do not induce vomiting, because aspiration of material into 

the lungs from vomiting can cause chemical pneumonitis which 

can be fatal. 

SECTION VI. REACTIVITY DATA 

.ABILITY: 

Stable under normal conditions. Avoid exposure to excessive heat. 

[COMPATIBILITY: 

Avoid contact with strong mineral acids, peroxides and 

polymerization catalysts. 

.ZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: 

Can Occur. 

SECTION VII. SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES 

"EPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: 

Evacuate all non-essential personnel. Remove all sources of 

ignition. Ventilate the area. Equip employees with appropriate 

protection equipment (See Section VIII). Dike around spilled 

material. Cover spill with inert absorbent material and shovel 

with non-sparking tools into container. Remove containers to a safe 

area and seal. 

\STE DISPOSAL METHOD: 

Waste material must be disposed of in accordance with federal, 

state, and local environmental regulatory controls. 

SECTION VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION 

ESPIRATORY PROTECTION: 

Avoid breathing vapor or mist.If exposure may or does exceed 

occupational exposure limits (SEC.IV) use a NIOSH-approved respirator to prevent overexposure. In accord with 29CFR 1910.134 

use either a full-face, atmosphere-supplying respirator or 

air-purifying respirator for organic vapors. 

ENTILATION: 

Local exhaust must be sufficient to keep airborne vapor 

concentrations below the TLV limit. Exhaust air may need to be 

cleaned by scrubbers or filters to reduce environmental 

contamination.

P.20 

ECTION VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION 2878737 (CONT.) 

ROTECTIVE GLOVES: 

Polyvinyl alcohol gloves. 

YE PROTECTION: 

Splash goggles. 

THER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: 

Polyvinyl alcohol apron.. Eye bath and safety shower. To prevent 

repeated or prolonged skin contact, wear impervious clothing and 

boots. 

[AZARDOUS MATERIALS IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM: 

See first page of MSDS. 

SECTION IX. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS 

'RECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: 

Drums: Protect against physical damage. Outside or detached 

storage preferred. 

Bulk: Storage should be in standard flammable liquid storage 

tanks. 

)THER PRECAUTIONS: 

All equipment should be grounded and bonded to reduce static 

electricity hazard. Use non-sparking tools. 

Overexposure to material has apparently been found to cause the 

following effects in laboratory animals: liver abnormalities, 

kidney damage, lung damage. 

RECENT DATA HAS SUPPORTED THE CHANGE IN THE CLASFICATION 

BY IARC OF STYRENE TO BE A SUSPECTED CARCINOGEN. 

OTHER COMMENTS 

-Je recommend that containers be either professionally reconditioned 

for reuse by certified firms or properly disposed of by certified 

firms to help reduce the possibility of an accident. Disposal of 

nontainers should be in accordance with applicable federal, state and 

local laws and regulations. "Empty" drums should not be given to 

individuals.
