Polyurethane vs. Polygraphite

Is there really a difference? Is one better than the other? Is PST the only company to only offer polygraphite?

I think I remember reading that PST was just energy suspension with a different name. Not sure if the polygraphite actually makes a difference as far as noise goes over the polyeurethane.

p-graphite is suppose to lessen squeaks that poly-u sometimes has.

I've got regular energy suspension poly bushings on my 69 camaro and the PST polygraphite kit on my 89, and I can't tell a difference between the two squeakwise. Of course I have heard some people say they get bad squeaks with poly, guess I just got lucky.
