Both types of drain cleaners can dissolve hair in pipes. Chemical drain cleaners are more corrosive; in fact, they may eventually damage your plumbing if used frequently or in large amounts. They must be safely handled and carefully stored.
Sulfuric acid at high concentrations is frequently the major ingredient in acidic drain cleaners which are used to remove grease, hair, tissue paper, etc.
Similar to their alkaline versions, such drain openers can dissolve fats and proteins via hydrolysis.
Because concentrated sulfuric acid has a strong dehydrating property, it can remove tissue paper via dehydrating process as well.
Since the acid may react with water vigorously, such acidic drain openers should be added slowly into the pipe to be cleaned.
