Abstract
A golf ball with a core comprising polybutadiene and graphene, and a soft cover is disclosed herein. The golf ball has a dual core with an outer core comprising polybutadiene and graphene. The soft cover is preferably composed of a highly neutralized polymer, a first ionomer, a second ionomer, and a paraloid impact modifier.
Claims18
A golf ball comprising:
- an inner core comprising a polybutadiene material;
- an outer core comprising polybutadiene material and a graphene material;
- and
- a cover layer disposed over the outer core, the cover layer comprising 5 to 45 wt % of a highly neutralized polymer, 5 to 45 wt % of a first ionomer, 5 to 45 wt % of a second ionomer, 5 to 45 wt % of a third ionomer, 5 to 30 wt % of a masterbatch comprising from 15 to 40 wt % of an impact modifier, and 1 to 10 wt % of a color masterbatch;
- wherein the golf ball has a diameter of at least 1.68 inches, a mass lower than 45.93 grams, and a COR of at least 0.790.
