What are the side effects of MMA monomer?

CAS 80-62-6 Methyl methacrylate (MMA monomer) is used in the manufacture of resins and plastics. Methyl methacrylate is irritating to the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes in humans. An allergic response to dermal exposure may develop.

Respiratory effects have been reported in humans following acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) inhalation exposures. Respiratory symptoms observed following acute exposures include chest tightness,

dyspnea, coughing, wheezing, and reduced peak flow. Neurological symptoms have also been reported in

humans following acute exposure to methyl methacrylate. Fetal abnormalities have been reported in

animals exposed to methyl methacrylate (MMA monomer) by injection and inhalation. EPA considers methyl methacrylate not likely to be carcinogenic to humans.
