When burning camphor, you will observe a white flame and a distinct aromatic odor. Camphor sublimes, which means it transforms from a solid directly into a gas, without passing through a liquid phase.

What does camphor change into while heating?

It depends on how you heat it. If it's combined with other plants and chemicals and is heated through the temperature of a flame, then it can effect the brain when inhaled. It, in simple terms, has the potential to get one high. But if you mean burning the actual substance itself and applying it to the skin, then it will be as harmful as a chemical burn. There's different parts to the camphor plant. If you heat certain parts, they create the smell of the camphor plant, which is used in some aroma therapies practices.

Is Camphor Laurel good burning wood for your fireplace?

Though the camphor laurel is a nusicance (or worse) in a number of areas, it's smoke is toxic and it can leave a most unpleasant coating on the inside of your chimney. It probably isn't a good idea to burn this stuff. It's nasty. All the "stuff" in the laurel that allows the production of camphor from its leaves has to get up there, and the trunk (the part you're burning) has a good store of it in the wood. If it isn't against air quality standards in your area to burn the camphor laurel as firewood, it may very well be soon. Heck, they don't even burn it to eradicate it for the most part because of the environmental effects due to the smoke.
