Abstract
A golf ball comprising a core and at least one layer formed about the core is disclosed. The layer may be composed of a material formed from reactants comprising at least one polyisocyanate and at least one polyaspartic ester, such as N,N′-di(ethylmaleate-amino)-dicyclohexylmethane, N,N′-di(ethylmaleate-amino)-dimethyl-dicyclohexylmethane, N,N′-diethylmaleate-2-methyl-pentamethylene diamine, or a blend thereof. The layer may be an intermediate layer, an outer cover layer, or a coating layer.

14. A golf ball comprising:
-
a core, the core having a diameter of 1.55 inches to 1.65 inches and a first coefficient of restitution of 0.8 or greater; an intermediate layer disposed about the core, the intermediate layer having a first Shore D hardness of 20 to 80 and comprising a blend of two or more ionomers; an outer cover layer disposed about the intermediate layer;
the outer cover layer having a thickness of 0.005 inches to 0.05 inches and a second Shore D hardness of 30 to 70; anda coating layer, wherein the golf ball has a second coefficient of restitution of 0.8 or greater and a compression of 50 to 120, and at least one of the outer cover layer and the coating layer is composed of a material formed from reactants comprising at least one polyisocyanate and at least one polyaspartic ester selected from the group consisting of N,N′
-di(ethylmaleate-amino)-dicyclohexylmethane, N,N′
-di(ethylmaleate-amino)-dimethyl-dicyclohexylmethane, and N,N′
