1. A golf ball comprising a core and a cover, wherein a portion of the golf ball is formed from an interpenetrating polymer network comprising:
- a first polymeric system comprising a saturated isocyanate having terminal isocyanate groups, an amine-terminated component, and a blocked, delayed action curative; and
a second polymeric system comprising an acrylate resin and an initiator.

Abstract
The present invention is directed to a method of forming a golf ball that contains an interpenetrating polymer network, or IPN, which includes at least two polymeric systems, in one or more of the layers. The first polymeric system may include a polyurethane-based or polyurea-based system having blocked isocyanate groups and the second polymeric system may include an epoxy-based or acrylic-based system, wherein the two systems are polymerized or cured simultaneously or sequentially to form an IPN.
