Superiority:

Sodium Hydroxide in Cleaning & Disinfectant Products. Sodium hydroxide is usedto manufacture soaps and a variety of detergents used in homes and commercial applications. ... Drain cleaners that contain sodium hydroxide convert fats and grease that can clog pipes into soap, which dissolves in water.

Details:

Pure sodium hydroxide is a white solid, available in pellets, flakes, granules, and also 50% saturated solution. It is deliquescent and also readily absorbs carbon dioxide from the air, so it should be stored in an airtight container. It is very soluble in water with liberation of heat. It also dissolves in ethanol and methanol, though it exhibits lower solubility in these solvents than doespotassium hydroxide. It is insoluble in ether and other non-polar solvents. A sodium hydroxide solution will leave a yellow stain on fabric and paper.
