Tendel lyocell cooler than cotton? What about Q-max 0.43?

Trying to find affordable ways of cooling our sleep environment. Somebody suggested bedding made from Tencel Lyocell, which is a type of fabric made from cellulose fibre and eucalyptus I think. According to Google:

 

There are many types of lyocell, but TENCEL™ lyocell tops as one of the most innovative types of lyocell. TENCEL is 70% more moisture-wicking and 3x more breathable than cotton, making it a worthwhile bedding upgrade.

 

 Anyone think this might be hogwash?

 

 Having said that, M and S sell bedding made out of this stuff, so maybe it’s reputable.

 

 Another retailer is promoting the virtues of “Q-Max 0.43 Japanese cooling fibre, which works to reduce skin temperature by two to five degrees almost instantly for quick cooling comfort” but I cannot find much online about what this material is.
