Fresh air, rest.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Rest.
Exposure Routes: inhalation, ingestion, skin and/or eye contact Symptoms: irritation eyes, skin, respiratory system; skin burns; in animals: central nervous system depressant/depression Target Organs: Eyes, skin, respiratory system, central nervous system (NIOSH, 2016)
Basic treatment: Establish a patent airway. Suction if necessary. Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilations if necessary. Administer oxygen by nonrebreather mask at 10 to 15 L/min. Monitor for pulmonary edema and treat if necessary . Monitor for shock and treat if necessary . For eye contamination, flush eyes immediately with water. Irrigate each eye continuously with normal saline during transport . Do not use emetics. For ingestion, rinse mouth and administer 5 ml/kg up to 200 ml of water for dilution if the patient can swallow, has a strong gag reflex, and does not drool. Administer activated charcoal . Aromatic hydrocarbons and related compounds
Use water spray, dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Fight fire from protected lequipmentor maximum possible distance. Use remote equiment wherever possible.
This chemical is combustible. (NTP, 1992)
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and vapours adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.
Stop or control the leak, if this can be done without undue risk. Adsorb in noncombustible material (e.g., sand) for proper disposal. Use water spray to cool and disperse vapors and protect personnel. Control runoff and isolate discharged material for proper disposal.
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Separated from oxidants. Cool. Store only if stabilized.Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location. Outside or detached storage is preferred.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

The substance may polymerize due to heating. This generates fire or explosion hazard. Reacts violently with oxidants.
no data available
Combustible. Heating will cause rise in pressure with risk of bursting.DIVINYL BENZENE may react vigorously with strong oxidizing agents. Can react exothermically with reducing agents (such as alkali metals and hydrides) to release gaseous hydrogen. May react exothermically with both acids and bases. May in the presence of various catalysts (such as acids) or initiators undergo exothermic polymerization. Inhibited by presence of an additive. When uninhibited violent polymerization may occur (NTP, 1992). Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction.
no data available
Reacts with acids, oxidizing materials, peroxides, metal salts such as iron chloride or aluminum chloride, or polymer initiators.
When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes

In a 4-week biodegradation screening test (MITI test) using vinylstyrene (100 mg/l) and an activated sludge inoculum (30 mg/l), 0% of BOD was removed(1). Data regarding the biodegradation of vinylstyrene in either soil or aquatic systems were not available(SRC).
A BCF range of 206-444 was measured for vinylstyrene(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC).
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for vinylstyrene can be estimated to be 1,700(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that vinylstyrene is expected to have low mobility in soil.

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
