Patents are not filed by countries but rather by individuals or companies.

In this case the first patent for a polyester fabric, Terylene, was filed by John R. Whitfield and his assistant, James Dickson in July 1941. However because of WW2 the patent wasn't registered until 1946.

If nationality does make a difference, Mr Whitfield & Mr Dickinson were, at the time working for the Calico Printers Association in the UK.
