Problems solved by technology

[0004] In addition, in the process of firing the paste into electrodes, it needs to be fired at a high temperature for a short time. During firing, the existing paste generally has problems such as a decrease in resolution due to shrinkage. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the high-temperature firing of the silver paste. performance is necessary

Abstract

The invention discloses a silver paste for an electrode of a solar cell and a method for preparing the silver paste. The silver paste comprises the following components by mass percent: 60-85% of silver powder, 8-12% of glass powder, 7-20% of organic phase, 2-8% of organic solvent and 0.1-3% of oxide additive. The silver paste disclosed by the invention has the advantages of excellent high-temperature firing performance; and the electrode fired by the silver paste has high precision and excellent conductivity and is suitable for being applied to battery assemblies with higher photoelectric conversion efficiency.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a silver paste used for solar cell electrodes and a preparation method thereof. The silver paste is especially suitable for silicon solar cell systems requiring high photoelectric conversion efficiency and high printing precision. technical background: [0002] In recent years, with the depletion of global energy sources and the increasing restrictions on CO2 emissions, the development of solar energy, especially crystalline silicon solar energy, has been developing rapidly. At present, my country has become the world's largest production base of solar cells, and most of the raw materials used in the solar industry have been localized, but the silver paste mainly relies on foreign imports, such as DuPont and FERRO. The role of the silver paste is to create an alloy layer for ohmic contact and serve as the lead wire of the battery. Its performance directly affects the key indicator of the solar cell - the photoelectric conversi...
