The present disclosure is drawn to a reactive polyurethane dispersion including a polymer strand having a polymer backbone that has two ends terminating at a first capping unit and a second capping unit. The polymer backbone can include polymerized monomers including a reactive diol and a diisocyanate. The reactive diol can be an acrylate-containing diol, a methacrylate-containing diol, a styrene-containing diol, or combination thereof. The first capping unit can be a styrene-containing monoalcohol reacted with an isocyanate group of the diisocyanate. The second capping unit can be an ionic stabilizing group.

A method of forming a golf ball is disclosed herein. The method includes injecting a cover mixture into a mold to form a cover mixture comprising a thermoplastic polyurethane resin and a polyahl, subjecting the golf ball to a polyisocyanated solution to create a golf ball with a polyisocyanated cover, and heating the golf ball or polyisocyanated cover to remove a solvent component of the polyisocyanated solution and promote the reaction of the polyisocyanate with the cover mixture and polyahl.

The thermosetting resin composition according to an embodiment of the present invention contains a component (A) which is a novolac vinyl ester resin having a hydroxyl group and an ethylenically unsaturated group in the molecule, a component (B) which is an ethylenically unsaturated monomer, and a component (D) which is a polyisocyanate compound, wherein the component (A) has a hydroxyl value of 30-150 mgKOH/g, and the mole number of the hydroxyl group with respect to the mole number of the ethylenically unsaturated group per gram of the component (A) ((the amount of the hydroxyl group [mol/g])/(the amount of the ethylenically unsaturated group [mol/g])) is 0.1-0.8.

An object is to provide a (meth)acrylamide based urethane oligomer which has excellent compatibility with organic solvents and general purpose acrylic monomers and oligomers, a high curing property with an active energy ray, and a low curing shrinkage property, and to provide an active energy ray curable resin composition containing the same which has an excellent adhesion property, moisture resistance, surface curing property, and also a low curing shrinkage property, and a molded article of the same. By using a (meth)acrylamide based urethane oligomer characterized by having a (meth)acrylamide group at the end or in side chain thereof and a cure shrinkage rate of 5% or less, it is possible to prepare a urethane oligomer having high curing property and excellent compatibility with organic solvents and general purpose acrylic monomers and oligomers, and an active energy ray curable resin composition containing the same and having excellent adhesion property can be prepared.

A golf ball includes a single core having an outer surface and a geometric center. The core is formed from a substantially homogenous rubber composition. An inner cover layer is disposed about the core, the inner cover including a high-acid ionomer and having a material hardness of about 66 to 75 Shore D. The high-acid ionomer has an acid content of about 16% or greater. An outer cover layer is disposed about the inner cover layer, the outer cover including a polyurethane and having a material hardness of about 38 Shore D to about 56 Shore D. The core surface hardness is from 0 Shore C to 15 Shore C lower than the geometric center hardness to define a hardness gradient.
