what is the difference between "Unicode Text" and "Utf16" ?


Unicode text has type code 'utxt' and means 16-bit Unicode text in the natural byte order of the currently running system.
"Utf16" (which I've never seen in an AppleScript context until you mentioned how to show it recently) mostly likely is the AppleEvent text type 'ut16' and is documented briefly:


/* The preferred unicode text types. In both cases, there is no explicit null termination or length byte. */
enum {
typeUTF16ExternalRepresentation = 'ut16', /* big-endian 16 bit unicode with optional byte-order-mark, or little-endian 16 bit unicode with required byte-order-mark. */
typeUTF8Text = 'utf8' /* 8 bit unicode */
};
