PTT fiber, while having the general chemical composition of polyester, is a better product than what people traditionally think of as polyester since PET historically has not had good wear characteristics. If we have to call it polyester, it is mileading the consumer and the deals as to how good the product actually is. This product preforms much better than a PET product, and should be given a different name to avoid consumers and dealers from having a biased opion of the product.
