Solid golf ball
View Patent ↗The present invention provides a solid golf ball that exhibits a high resilience performance and a high flight performance and gives a good shot feeling. The present invention relates to a solid golf ball including: a core including at least one layer; and a cover including at least one layer, the cover being provided to cover the core, wherein the at least one layer of the core is prepared by vulcanization-molding a rubber composition including: (a) a base rubber; (b) a co-crosslinking agent; (c) an organic peroxide; (d) a filler; and (e) a disulfide compound represented by formula (I): R 1 —S—S—R 2 (I) wherein R 1 and R 2 each represent any one of the following groups: an aromatic hydrocarbon group; an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having two or more carbon atoms; a heterocyclic hydrocarbon group; and an alicyclic hydrocarbon group, each of which is optionally substituted, and R 1 is a group different from R 2 .
1. A solid golf ball, comprising:
a core including at least one layer; and
a cover including at least one layer, the cover being provided to cover the core,
wherein the at least one layer of the core is prepared by vulcanization-molding a rubber composition,
the rubber composition comprising:
(a) a base rubber;
(b) a co-crosslinking agent;
(c) an organic peroxide;
(d) a filler; and
(e) a disulfide compound represented by the following formula (I):
R 1 —S—S—R 2 (I)
wherein R 1 is an optionally substituted aromatic hydrocarbon group, R 2 is an optionally substituted aliphatic hydrocarbon group having four or more carbon atoms, and R 1 is a group different from R 2 , or
a compound represented by the following formula (III):
wherein, in the formula (III), R 1-vi to R 1-x may be the same as or different from one another and each represents H or a substituent, at least one of R 1-vi to R 1-x is a substituent, and at least one of the substituents is a halogen group or trihalomethyl group; R 2-vi to R 2-x may be the same as or different from one another and each represents H or a substituent, at least one of R 2-vi to R 2-x is a substituent, and at least one of the substituents is a halogen group or trihalomethyl group; and the phenyl group having R 1-vi to R 1-x is different from the phenyl group having R 2-vi to R 2-x .
2. The solid golf ball according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of the disulfide compound represented by the formula (I) is 0.05 to 3.0 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the base rubber.
3. The solid golf ball according to claim 1 , wherein the core has a diameter of 32.8 to 40.8 mm, and the deformation amount of the core is 2.0 to 6.0 mm when applying a load from 98 N as an initial load to 1275 N as a final load to the core.
