Health Hazard

Exposures to allylbenzene cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. It causes harmful effects if inhaled or swallowed and causes respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated.

storage

Allylbenzene should be kept stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area with adequate ventilation during use.

Precautions

Workers while handling allylbenzene should not breathe dust or vapor, or ingest the chemical substance. Allylbenzene should only be used in a chemical fume hood and sources of ignition should be avoided. Workers should wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA protection regulations.
