Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of H01B1 / 16, and in particular to a PERC crystalline silicon solar back side silver paste and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic solar cells continue to develop in the direction of high photoelectric conversion efficiency, low production cost and high production efficiency. With the increasing maturity of TOPCon technology and HJT technology, PERC crystalline silicon solar cell technology faces greater pressure on photoelectric conversion efficiency and cost. The non-silicon material part of PERC crystalline silicon solar cells, the front silver paste and the back silver paste have a greater impact on the photoelectric conversion efficiency and cost. Compared with the front silver paste, the back silver paste accounts for a small proportion of the material cost, but as a silver-containing back conductive electrode, it is not easy to reduce the silver content without affecting the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell.

[0003] Generally speaking, when the silver content of the back electrode silver paste is reduced, the resistance increases, resulting in a decrease in the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell; when the silver content is reduced, the adhesion of the back electrode after sintering is reduced, and the solderability and solder resistance deteriorate, resulting in poor soldering of the cell, causing the failure of the photovoltaic module. Therefore, the silver content of the mainstream PERC crystalline silicon solar cell back silver paste on the market at this stage is in the range of 55-67% (weight percentage). For example, a Chinese patent application (authorization announcement number CN 109949966B) discloses a high-reliability PERC crystalline silicon solar cell back silver conductive paste and its preparation process. Although the glass powder composition is optimized to meet the requirements of low firing temperature and high back electrode reliability of PERC cells, the silver powder content is as high as 55-65%. Therefore, how to reduce the silver content of the back electrode silver paste for PERC crystalline silicon solar cells to 48-52% (weight percentage), reduce the material cost of the cell, and ensure the photoelectric conversion efficiency and welding performance of the cell, has important practical significance.
