The retention diagram of polycaprolactone for tert‐butyl acetate was obtained by inverse gas chromatography method in the temperature range of 40‐140 °C. Rate of crystallinity was determined between 45.0 percent and 37.1 percent in the temperatures at 40 and 53 °C, respectively. Thermodynamic interaction parameters were determined for cyclopentane, cyclohexane, tetrahydrofuran and 1,4‐dioxane with polycaprolactone between 70 and 130 °C. Specific retention volumes, V g o , Flory Huggins polymer‐solvent interaction parameters, χ 12 ∞ , equation of state polymer‐solvent interaction parameters, χ 12 * , weight fraction activity coefficients of the solvents at infinite dilution, Ω 1 ∞ , effective exchange energy parameters, X̄ 12 were determined.
