Process for incorporating nanofiller masterbatch into a core of a golf ball
A method for forming a golf ball core with a nanofiller masterbatch is disclosed herein. The method includes mixing the nanofiller masterbatch, a graphene masterbatch material with other materials to form a core mixture, wherein the masterbatch preferably comprises 1-80% by weight of nanofillers and 20-99% by weight of a carrier polymer.
1. A method for forming a golf ball core, the method comprising:
mixing a first masterbatch, a second masterbatch, a barium sulfate, a peroxide component and a zinc penta component, wherein the first masterbatch comprises 1-10 weight percent zinc oxide, 30 to 50 weight percent zinc diacrylate, and 40 to 80 weight percent polybutadiene, and wherein the second masterbatch comprises a graphene and a carrier polymer; and
forming a core for a golf ball.
2. The method according to claim 1 wherein the zinc penta component is zinc bis(pentachlorothiophenolate).
3. The method according to claim 1 wherein the peroxide component is 1,1-bis(t-butyl peroxy)-3,3,5 tri-methylcyclohexane.
