the Primary Key does both, Makes values Unique and NOT NULL, it can only be used once per table, as of UNIQUE can be used multiple times in a table.

primary keys are use to create foreign keys and normalize The table, that means, avoid duplicate data and improve performance

Unique can be null but primary key will never accept null.
