Due to work reasons, I often come into contact with decorative materials. These materials all contain formaldehyde. Will it cause cancer for a long time?

    Newly renovated house decoration materials will release excessive toxic substance formaldehyde, which is one of the main causes of cancer. The National Cancer Institute released a new study on the 12th that showed that workers in chemical plant that are frequently exposed to formaldehyde are more likely to die from cancers such as blood cancer and lymphoma than workers who are less exposed to formaldehyde. Reuters reported that researchers surveyed 25,000 workers in chemical plants producing formaldehyde and formaldehyde resins, and found that among those workers who had the most exposure to formaldehyde, the mortality rate was 37% higher than those with the least opportunity.
