Abstract

Polyarylalkane oligomer compositions containing essentially of a mixture of isomers of benzylcumene and its higher homologues and a mixture of isomers of bis(isopropylphenyl)phenylmethane; the method of making such compositions by first reacting chlorine with toluene, xylene, or a mixture of toluene and xylene in the presence of a radical generator, removing the unreacted toluene and/or xylene, and then subjecting the reaction product to the action of an inorganic halide or of an inorganic acid in the presence of a benzene-related compound; and microcapsules containing color-forming material wherein the compositions are used as solvents for the color-forming material.
