The crystallization and melting behavior of poly(1, 4-cyclohexylene dimethylene terephthalate) (PCT) was studied by fast scanning calorimetry (FSC) combined with traditional differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in the range of near glass transition temperature and melting temperature (100~270 ℃). The crystallization rate of PCT is faster when the supercooling degree is larger. FSC can effectively inhibit the crystallization of PCT during the cooling process while the traditional DSC can avoid the influence of sample degradation on the experimental results under the lower supercooling degrees. The combination of FSC and DSC can well measure the crystallization kinetics of PCT. The experimental results show that the crystallization rate is the fastest at 175 ℃. FSC is also used to measure the melting point dependence of heating rate after isothermal crystallization, and calibrated on the basis of the modeling of melting kinetics for the determination of the melting point at zero heating rate T_m. The Hoffman-Weeks plot of T_m against T_c with the intersection of T_c=T_m suggested the equilibrium melting point T_m^o≅315 ℃ of chain-extended infinite-size crystals of PCT.
