  • Toxicity Summary: IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Styrene is a colorless to yellowish, oily liquid. It is used in the manufacture of plastics, synthetic rubber, and resins, and as an insulator. It is also used as a flavoring agent for ice cream and candy. HUMAN STUDIES: Humans acutely exposed to styrene by inhalation to 800 ppm (3.4 mg/L) for 3 hr experience immediate eye and throat irritation, increased nasal mucous secretion, metallic taste, drowsiness, and vertigo. After test termination, slight muscular weakness, accompanied by inertia and depression were noted. Long-term contact with styrene results in blistering of the skin and development of dermatitis, which is thought to result from defatting of the skin. Effects on the liver (e.g., increased serum bile acid and enhanced activity of plasma enzymes) and reproductive system (e.g., decreased frequency of births and increased frequency of spontaneous abortions in female workers) have been reported. Epidemiologic studies found styrene workers had increased mortality or incidences of lymphohematopoietic cancers (leukaemia or lymphoma or all), with suggestive evidence for pancreatic and esophageal tumors. No adequate human studies are available for styren Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Toxicity Summary: Styrene 7,8-oxide, a metabolite of styrene, can form DNA adducts by binding to deoxyguanosine. It is also mutagenic and causes increased frequency of sister chromatid exchange, chromosomal aberrations, micronucleated cells, and DNA strand breaks. (L1831) Source: Toxin and Toxin Target Database (T3DB)
  • Environmental Bioconcentration: BCF ranges of 15-140 and 12-113 were measured in fish for styrene using carp (Cyprinus carpio) which were exposed over an 8-week period to 0.3 and 0.03 mg/L, respectively(1). A BCF of 13.5 was measured in goldfish for styrene(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these measured BCF values suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low to high(SRC). Calculated biomagnification factors (BMF) for styrene in water respiring organisms (zooplankton, forage and predatory fish) and air breathing organisms (reptile, amphibian, sea bird, marine mammal, terrestrial herbivore and carnivore, human) were all less than 1(4). [ Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an experimental Koc value of 912(2), indicates that styrene is expected to have low mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of styrene from moist soil surfaces may be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 2.75X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(3). Styrene is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 6.4 mm Hg at 25 °C(4). In an experimental study using loamy soil, 26% of applied styrene (2 mg/kg) volatilized after 31 days(5); volatilization of styrene from soil surfaces is expected to be slower than in water(6). A 100% of theoretical BOD after 2 weeks using activated sludge in the Japanese MITI test(7) suggests that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an experimental Koc value of 912(2), indicates that styrene is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 2.75X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 3 hours and 4 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), measured BCF ranges from 12-140 in carp(6), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high to low(SRC). A 100% of theoretical BOD after 2 weeks using activated sludge in the Japanese MITI test(7) suggests that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in water(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), styrene, which has a vapor pressure of 6.4 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase styrene is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 6.6 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 5.8X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). Vapor-phase styrene is also degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with ozone and nitrate radicals; the half-lives for these reactions in air are 24 and 3.7 hours, respectively(4). Styrene does not strongly absorb light at wavelengths above 270 nm(5) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight since sunlight consists of wavelengths above 290 nm(SRC).

The broad spectrum of uses of these products includes construction, packaging, automotive and household goods. Packaging is the single largest application for styrenecontaining resins, particularly foams, used as fillers and cushioning. Construction applications include pipes, fittings, tanks, lighting fixtures and corrosion-resistant products. Household goods include synthetic marble, flooring, disposable tableware and moulded furnishings. Transport applications range from tyres to reinforced plastics and automobile body putty.

  • Uses: Styrene is used to make plastics and rubber. It is a precursor to polystyrene and may be found in insulation, fiberglass, plastic pipes, automobile parts, shoes, drinking cups and other food containers, and carpet backing. Low levels of styrene also occur naturally in a variety of foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, beverages, and meats. Small amounts of styrene can be transferred to food from styrene-based packaging material. (L1831) Source: Toxin and Toxin Target Database (T3DB)
