They are components of commercial bleaches, cleaning solutions, and disinfectants for drinking water and waste water purification systems and swimming pools.The basic goal is to protect pub- lic health. However, the broader goal is to provide potable water that is safe to drink, pleasant in appearance, pleasant in taste and odor, and cost-effective to produce.

Sodium hydroxide is employed as the saponification alkali for most soap now produced. Soap may also be manufactured with potassium hydroxide (caustic potash) as the alkali. Potassium soaps are more soluble in water than sodium soaps; in concentrated form, they are called soft soap.
Common thinners and dispersants used in oil drilling include tannins, sodium tetraphosphate and other phosphates, sodium poly(styrene sulfonate-co-maleic anhydride), and some other synthetic polymers, and lignosulfonate salts.
