Drain cleaners for sure - consumer products have high alkalinity. Professional plumbers, on the other hand use highly acidic cleaners

Vinegar is somewhat acidic.

Soaps and detergents usually have a mild alkaline ph. However used repeatedly, they can make sensitive skin red and irritated.

Antifreeze? Don't know - sorry
