Abstract
A golf ball including a composition having an unsaturated polymer, a cross-linking agent, a peptizer, and an accelerator. The composition can be incorporated into the golf ball's core, intermediate layers, and cover layers, and can provide optimal performance and durability properties. The golf balls incorporating the composition are easy to manufacture.
Claims39
A golf ball including a composition comprising:
- an unsaturated polymer;
- a cross-linking agent;
- a peptizer, wherein the peptizer comprises a non-metal salt of pentachlorothiophenol;
