New Silicones With High Durability For BIPV
Estimating To Match The Life Of Other Building Components Of 50 Years, Dow Is Promoting New Silicone Based Encapsulation Solution For BIPV
Silicone is also an interesting and well-known material used for encapsulation applications. Several variants of silicones have been introduced in the past but with very little success.
EPE: The Two In One Approach For Module Encapsulation
Combining The Best Of Two – EVA And POE – Encapsulation Materials Suppliers Have Developed A Co-Extruded Multilayer Structure EVA-POE-EVA For Bifacial Modules
With the increased deployment of bifacial modules and EVA having some limitations, especially the low PID resistance, its applications are mostly limited to glass-glass modules.
The Thermoplastic Variant Of Polyolefins
Thermoplastic Polyolefin Solar Module Encapsulation Solutions With The Ability To Support Low Processing Temperature Are Mainly Promoted For HJT And Perovskites Based Tandem Architectures
Unlike with backsheets, where Austria’s Borealis is following a “B to B” approach, in the encapsulation segment the chemical company is taking a “B to C” approach.
White EVA For Higher Module Output
Employing White EVA On Rear Side Instead Of Transparent Variant Is Now Mainstream And Is Also The Most Important Development In EVA Segment Of Solar Encapsulants
While EVA has been traditionally used in a transparent form for solar modules, a white variant was brought to the market to be used as the bottom encapsulation layer.
Excerpts Of Trends In Encapsulation
While Price Increase Is The Most Important Development In Commercial Space, Bifacial Is Heart Of The Technological Developments In Encapsulation Segment
While nothing groundbreaking has happened in the mainstream encapsulation segment, Dow is in the process of developing a very innovative liquid silicone solution for building integrated PV that cures at room temperature with high durability of up to 50 years.
