proper encoding for POSTing to Rest API

If I send a string like this "Some product name <>" via Rest API, then if I urlencode (in PHP) this string I get "Some%20product%20name%20%3C%3E" (or a bit different if I choose to encode as RFC1738) stored in the SERP, so it looks like the string is not decoded to normal text.
I have set header as 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
How to encode strings I send via rest api?
