Usually polyester; some modern balls are based on urethanes instead. Older balls were hard rubber, which is also a polymer but would not be considered "plastic" by most people. There's a more dense "core" in the ball that's made of a composite material, so the ball weighs more than a solid piece of the outside plastic would.
