It takes less of it by weight to produce the same freezing point depression, so if that's the consideration, yes. If the consideration is cost, corrosion impact, residual toxicity, etc. then the answer might be different (actually, sodium chloride probably wins on the ones listed as well, but I'm not certain of that).
