Low compression multi-piece golf balls having a solid core comprising at least one layer made of a plasticized thermoplastic composition are provided. Preferably, the ball has a compression of less than 60 and more preferably less than 50. The ball includes a cover in addition to the core sub-assembly. For example, two-piece and three-piece golf balls may be made. The plasticized thermoplastic composition preferably comprises: a) ethylene acid copolymer, b) plasticizer, and c) cation source. Preferably, a fatty acid ester such as butyl oleate is used as the plasticizer. In two-layered core constructions, the outer core layer is preferably formed from a thermoset composition such as polybutadiene rubber. The core layers may have different hardness levels. The core structure and resulting ball have relatively good resiliency at given compressions.
本发明提供了一种低压缩多片高尔夫球,该球具有一个实心,其中至少有一层是由塑化热塑性组合物制成的。球的压缩率最好小于 60,最好小于 50。除了球芯子组件外,球还包括一个盖子。例如,可以制造两件式和三件式高尔夫球。塑化热塑性组合物最好包括:a)
乙烯酸共聚物,b)
增塑剂,c) 阳离子源。
增塑剂最好使用
脂肪酸酯,如
油酸丁酯。在双层芯材结构中,外层芯材最好由热固性组合物(如聚
丁二烯橡胶)形成。芯层的硬度可以不同。在给定的压缩条件下,芯层结构和由此产生的球具有相对较好的弹性。
