so to sum up, it's bleach.
And caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) a precursor of sodium hypochlorite,
also useful as a cleaner, and available cheaply £2 for 500g in Wilko.
(B&Q website claims to sell it for half that, but none of the nearby
stores have stock).
I thought that was present in household bleach.
IIRC chlorine bleach has sodium hypochlorite as the active ingredient
& a small amount of something cheap & alkaline (typically sodium
hydroxide) just to make it more stable.
"Pure" liquid bleach (like Milton) contains a small amount of sodium
chloride, but that's just a bi-product of manufacture - it's made by
passing chlorine gas through sodium hydroxide (caustic soda). Ordinary
domestic bleach (as in bog cleaner) contains "surfactants" (whatever
they are - I think they are a kind of detergent), perfume, whatever
makes it thick so it sticks to the side of the bowl...
