Embodiment 1

[0208]

[0209] Polyolefin resin (thickness 25μm, WVTR6.0g·m -2 ·day -1 ) was directly pasted on the surface of the thermoelectric element layer prepared on one side of the polyimide film substrate as a sealing layer, and the thermoelectric conversion element layer was produced.

[0210] In the method of forming the sealant layer, first, a polyolefin-based resin is formed on a release film by a known coating method. Then, the thermoelectric element layer was pasted on the surface of the thermoelectric element layer using a laminator, and then the release film was peeled off to form a sealing layer.

[0211] For the polyolefin resin, a polyisoprene-based rubber (manufactured by Kuraray Co., Ltd., LIR410, number average molecular weight: 30,000, number of carboxylic acid functional groups per molecule: 10) containing a carboxylic acid functional group was used. 5 parts by mass, rubber polymers without carboxylic acid functional groups: 100 parts by mass of a copolymer of iso...

Embodiment 2

[0213] The sealing layer used in Example 1 was further pasted on the other surface of the polyimide film substrate having no thermoelectric element layer, and a thermoelectric conversion element layer was produced in the same manner as in Example 1.

Embodiment 3

[0215] The sealing layer that is arranged on the both sides of polyimide film substrate of embodiment 2 is changed into two layers and is epoxy resin (thickness 24 μm, WVTR160g·m -2 ·day -1 ), and the thermoelectric conversion element layer was fabricated in the same manner as in Example 2, except that the sealing layer was cured at 100° C. for 2 hours after the sealing layer was pasted.

[0216]100 parts by mass of acid-modified polyolefin resin (α-olefin polymer, manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., trade name: Unistole H-200, number average molecular weight: 47,000), polyfunctional epoxy compound (1) (hydrogenated bis Phenol A diglycidyl ether, manufactured by Kyoeisha Chemical Co., Ltd., trade name: Epolight 4000, epoxy equivalent 215 to 245 g / eq, molecular weight: 800) 100 parts by mass, thickener (styrene-based monomer aliphatic) Monomer copolymer, softening point 95° C., manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., trade name: FTR6100) 50 parts by mass, imidazole-based c...

Abstract

The present invention provides a thermoelectric conversion element layer having excellent durability and a method for producing this thermoelectric conversion element layer. Specifically provided is athermoelectric conversion element layer which comprises: a thermoelectric conversion module that is composed of a thermoelectric element layer wherein at least P-type thermoelectric element layers and N-type thermoelectric element layers are alternately arranged in series on one surface of a film substrate to be adjacent to each other in the in-plane direction; and a sealing layer that is additionally arranged on the surface side of the thermoelectric element layer. This thermoelectric conversion element layer is configured such that the water vapor transmission rate of the sealing layer as determined in accordance with JIS K7129 (2008) at 40 DEG C at 90% RH is 1,000 g.m<-2>.day-1 or less. Also provided is a method for producing this thermoelectric conversion element layer.

Description

[0001] Technical division [0002] The present invention relates to a thermoelectric conversion element layer and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0003] Conventionally, thermoelectric power generation technology and Peltier cooling technology are known as energy conversion technologies utilizing thermoelectric conversion. Thermoelectric power generation technology is a technology that utilizes the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy brought about by the Seebeck effect. Energy-saving technologies that do not require operating costs are of particular interest. In contrast, Peltier cooling technology is the opposite of thermoelectric power generation. It uses the technology of converting electrical energy to thermal energy brought about by the Peltier effect. This technology has been used in wine coolers, small portable refrigerators, and computers, etc. Components and devices that require precise temperature control, such as cooling comp...
