A polyester with ultra-high flowability and good stability over time is provided. The polyester can be polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) or another aliphatic polyester, whose intrinsic viscosity (IV) is less than 0.6 dL/g and a carboxylic end group (CEG) content is 15 meq/kg or less, and characterized by having a melt volume rate (MVR) of greater than 400 cm/10 min at 250° C. A resin composition of this polyester is provided, which can be meltblown into microfibers of a uniform diameter and a concentrated diameter distribution, forming a fabric with a uniform small pore size. 1. A polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) polymer , the PBT polymer having an intrinsic viscosity (IV) in the range of 0.3 to 0.6 dL/g and a melt volume rate (MVR) of greater than 400 cm/10 min , measured at 250° C. with a 2.16 kg load.2. The polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) polymer of claim 1 , wherein the MVR is measured at least twice over a period of time in the range of 0.5 hours to one day apart claim 1 , while maintaining the PBT polymer under a consistent temperature of 250° C. over the period of time between the two measurements claim 1 , and a difference over time claim 1 , if any claim 1 , in the MVR values so measured having an arithmetic average mean value and a standard deviation claim 1 , and the standard deviation is less than 4% relative to the arithmetic average mean value.3. The polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) polymer of claim 1 , wherein the PBT polymer has at least one property selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic end group (CEG) content of 15 meq/kg claim 1 , or less claim 1 , relative to the weight of the PBT polymer claim 1 , a viscosity of less than 75 Pa·s measured at 245° C. under a shear rate of 1000 s claim 1 , and combinations thereof.4. The polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) polymer of claim 1 , wherein the PBT polymer has a viscosity of less than 30 Pa·s measured at 245° C. under a shear rate of 1000 s.5. The polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) polymer of ...
