A new study reveals that a common household chemical, when exposed to high temperatures, can break down into toxic byproducts that may pose serious health risks. Researchers found that heating the substance—often used in cleaning products and personal care items—produced compounds linked to respiratory issues and potential long-term damage. The findings raise concerns about everyday exposure, particularly in poorly ventilated spaces where fumes could accumulate. Experts are now urging consumers to handle such products with caution and consider safer alternatives.
