[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a golf ball whose surface is coated. (Prior art and its problems) Golf balls are generally finished with paint to improve their appearance. Urethane paints diluted with organic solvents are widely used as paints for golf balls. These paints use large amounts of organic solvents, so
There are problems in terms of safety and working environment, and countermeasures are necessary. In addition, urethane paints are cured by the reaction between polyol and polyisocyanate, but due to the reactivity of the isocyanate groups, they are susceptible to the influence of moisture in the atmosphere during curing, making it difficult to control the physical properties of the paint film. Further, in the case of two-piece golf balls and the like that use an ionomer resin cover, it is necessary to use an epoxy-based primer paint because the paint has insufficient adhesion to the cover. However, this epoxy coating has too high adhesion and requires a great deal of effort to peel off. In addition, golf balls cannot be heated and cured at high temperatures due to concerns about cover damage and internal deterioration, and are usually cured at a temperature of 30 to 40°C for 24 hours, but in this case the curing and drying process takes an extremely long time. (Purpose of the invention) Therefore, a golf ball that does not have the above-mentioned drawbacks is desired. (Structure of the Invention) That is, the present invention provides a golf ball whose surface is coated with a paint, wherein the paint is a dispersed water-based paint of high molecular weight polyurethane. As shown in Figure 1, the golf ball of the present invention has the following features:
A golf ball body 1 has a coating layer 2 on its surface coated with a high molecular weight polyurethane paint. The polymeric polyurethane dispersed water-based paint used in the present invention can be obtained by introducing a water-solubilizing group into a high-molecular weight polyurethane and dispersing it in water. Examples of water-soluble groups introduced into the high molecular weight polyurethane include acidic groups such as carboxyl groups and sulfonic acid groups; and basic groups such as amino groups. These water-soluble groups are stabilized in water by forming salts with other groups (including atoms) capable of forming salts. As the water-solubilizing group, a carboxyl group is preferable because it has a high affinity with the ionomer resin used for the cover of a golf ball and provides good adhesion of the coating film. Furthermore, as a group having the ability to form a salt with respect to a carboxyl group, ammonia, which is easily volatilized during drying and curing, is most suitable. Methods for introducing water-solubilizing groups into polyurethane molecules are known, and there is no need to explain them in detail here, but to give an example, an It is also possible to react a polyester having a polyurethane with a polyisocyanate to form a polyurethane, and then convert the remaining hydroxyl groups into a half ester with a dibasic acid to introduce a carboxyl group. Introducing water-solubilizing groups into resins in this manner is actively practiced in the field of paints, particularly in the fields of water-based paints and electrodeposition paints. The polyurethane of the present invention is dispersed in water due to the presence of the introduced water solubilizing group. As used herein, "dispersion" refers to a transparent, translucent, or opaque solution in which water is the dispersion medium and polyurethane is the dispersoid. In the present invention, since the polyurethane polymer has a high molecular weight, satisfactory coating film properties can be obtained without particularly using a crosslinking agent. If the molecular weight is too low, a fully satisfactory continuous coating cannot be obtained even with the use of a crosslinking agent. If the molecular weight is too large, the viscosity of the paint will increase, making it difficult to handle. The crosslinking agents that can be used can vary widely depending on the type of urethane polymer, but crosslinking agents using ethyleneimine are preferred. The use of crosslinking agents improves the physical properties of the coating, increasing strength, adhesion and water resistance. The dispersed water-based paint used in this invention is used as a colorless and transparent clear lacquer, but it may also be used as a colored enamel or fluorescent paint by adding color pigments such as titanium oxide or barium sulfate, extender pigments, or fluorescent pigments. . Furthermore, other additives such as flow control agents, flame retardants, leveling agents, etc. may be added. In the present invention, the golf ball body 1 is coated with the above-mentioned dispersed water-based paint by a conventional method such as spray coating, flow coating, dipping coating, gluing coating, etc.
Then, the coating layer 2 is formed by drying at 30 to 40°C for 2 to 3 hours. The golf ball body 1 may be a thread-wound core coated with a balata cover or an ionomer resin, or a two-piece or multi-piece golf ball with a solid core coated with an ionomer resin. especially,
In the case of a dispersion type water-based paint using a urethane polymer having a carboxyl group, it has a high affinity for the ionomer cover and is therefore suitable. (Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention uses a water-dispersed paint to paint golf balls, it hardly impairs the working environment and safety unlike conventional organic solvent-based paints. Further, since the urethane polymer used in the coating has a high molecular weight, a coating film having excellent coating properties for a golf ball can be obtained without adding any crosslinking agent. Furthermore, conventional two-component urethane paints remain sticky even after the solvent evaporates.
It takes about 24 hours to fully cure, but with the high molecular weight polyurethane polymer paint used in this invention, a sufficient coating film can be obtained by just evaporating the water, so the drying time is short, only 2 to 3 hours, and production efficiency is improved. can be improved. Further, when a polyurethane polymer having a carboxyl group is used, the adhesion with the ionomer cover is improved. (Example) The present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to an example. Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 Golf balls using an ionomer resin as a cover were coated with the paints shown in Table 1 in the coating form shown in Table 1. As for the drying method, in the case of a conventional two-component curing type epoxy or urethane paint, it was cured at 35°C for 24 hours, and in the case of the water-based paint according to the present invention, it was cured at 35°C for 2 to 4 hours. The painting method was spray painting using a spray gun. The adhesion, durability, and weather resistance of the resulting coating film were evaluated. The results are shown in Table-1. 【table】
