Toxicological profile for styrene. Final report

Technical Report · Tue Sep 01 04:00:00 EDT 1992

OSTI ID:6260043

The Statement was prepared to give information about styrene and to emphasize the human health effects that may result from exposure to it. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has identified 1,177 sites on its National Priorities List (NPL). Styrene has been found in at least 52 of these sites. As EPA evaluates more sites, the number of sites at which styrene is found may change. The information is important to know because styrene may cause harmful health effects and because these sites are potential or actual sources of human exposure to styrene.
