Patent ID: 6949617

Claim:
A golf ball comprising a core and a cover, wherein the cover comprises a thermoplastic or thermoset composition comprising: a reactant A comprising an isocyanate; and a reactant B comprising a polyether polyol comprising a repeating branched oxyalkylene monomer unit of the structure: where Y 1 is a hydrocarbon, Y 2 , Y 3 , and Y 4 are independently hydrogen or hydrocarbons, a, b, and x are independent whole numbers of 0 to about 10, and at least one of a, b, and x is an integer of 1 to about 10, or a polymerized polyol formed from a chiral diol of the structure: or a chiral cyclic ether of the structure: where R 1 and R 4 are different linear or branched hydrocarbons of 1 to about 10 carbon atoms, and R 2 and R 3 are different moieties of hydrogen or linear or branched hydrocarbons of 1 to about 10 carbon atoms.
