Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic cell components, and in particular relates to a synergistic double-layer co-extruded packaging adhesive film and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] As the efficiency of P-type PERC cells approaches the theoretical limit of 24.5%, the iteration of N-type cell technologies such as HJT and TOPCon has gradually accelerated. Among them, the advantages of TOPCon photovoltaic cells in terms of conversion efficiency and production costs have gradually become apparent. TOPCon cells are a type of solar cell technology. Its cell structure is an N-type silicon substrate cell. An ultra-thin layer of silicon oxide is prepared on the back, and then a thin layer of doped silicon is deposited. The two together form a passivated contact structure. Compared with P-type PERC cells, this structure has higher requirements for water vapor, pH, and stress performance, and is more sensitive.

[0003] At present, TOPCon photovoltaic cell modules, especially single-glass TOPCon photovoltaic cells, can basically only be encapsulated with low water permeability improved POE film. CN114806457A discloses a packaging film, especially a TOPCon battery-specific packaging film and its preparation method, and relates to the technical field of solar cell modules. The main material is: according to actual needs, choose: EVA resin 70-98 parts or POE resin 70-98 parts; auxiliary materials are: 0-3 parts of anti-aging additives, 0.3-2 parts of coupling agents, 0.5-3 parts of cross-linking agents, 0.2-2 parts of anti-PID additives, modified resins, 1-15 parts, processing aids: 0-5 parts. The resin modification technology is used to solve the problem of power attenuation caused by wet heat aging caused by the precipitation of POE film additives and the overflow of the packaging film; however, there are still some problems with POE film, such as low extrusion casting efficiency, serious slippage with glass and battery cells during component preparation, serious migration and precipitation of additives, and a shorter shelf life than EVA.

[0004] Styrene elastomers, such as SEEPS or SEBS, have good weather resistance, heat resistance, compression deformation resistance and excellent mechanical properties, and have excellent electrical properties and good solvent compatibility. They have good compatibility with various polyolefins and can be blended and modified. They are widely used in automotive components, wires and cables, polymer modifications and medical products.

[0087] Performance Test:

[0088] (1) Light transmittance: Tested in accordance with the light transmittance method in the national standard GBT2410-2008 "Determination of light transmittance and haze of transparent plastics";

[0089] (2) Volume resistivity: Tested in accordance with GB / T1410-200 "Test method for volume resistivity and surface resistivity of solid insulating materials";

[0090] (3) Peel strength: Tested in accordance with GB / T2790-1995 "Test method for 180° peel strength of adhesives". All backsheets use CPC structure backsheets, and the glass uses ultra-clear photovoltaic patterned glass.

[0091] (4) Acid value: Tested according to the test method in the patent "Test and Evaluation of Corrosion Resistance of Encapsulation Film for Photovoltaic Modules" (Patent No. CN115406824 A).

[0092] The encapsulation films provided in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were tested according to the above test method. The test results are shown in Table 1:

[0093] Table 1 Performance test results of embodiments and comparative examples

[0094]

[0095] According to the data in Table 1, we can see that:

[0096] The light transmittance of the encapsulation films provided in Examples 1 to 4 is 92.31 to 92.61%, the acid value is 147 to 252 ug / g, and the volume resistivity is 1.2 to 2.4×10 17 Ohm·cm, initial peel strength of 128-154N / cm, and peel strength of 101-114N / cm after DH1000 h.

[0097] By comparing the data of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4, it can be seen that the peel strength and volume resistivity of the encapsulation films provided by Comparative Examples 1 to 3 after wet heat aging DH 1000h are significantly lower than those of Example 1; while the acid value of the encapsulation film provided by Comparative Example 4 is significantly higher than that of Example 1, and the volume resistivity is significantly lower than that of Example 1.

[0098] By comparing the data of Examples 1-2 and Examples 3-4, it can be seen that the acid value of the packaging film of Examples 1-2 with the acid binding agent added is significantly lower than that of the packaging film of Examples 3-4 without the acid binding agent added.

[0099] Comparing the data of Example 1 and Example 5, it can be seen that the initial bonding force of the encapsulation film provided by Example 5 is less than that of Example 1, indicating that the addition of maleic anhydride grafting modification has an improvement effect on the initial bonding force;

[0100] In summary, it can be seen that the present invention can effectively reduce the acid value of the packaging film and increase the peeling strength of the packaging film with glass after wet-heat aging by introducing styrene elastomers SEEPS and SEBS into the packaging film.

[0101] (5) In order to compare and illustrate the effects of different encapsulation films on the performance of the prepared TOPCon battery modules, the TOPCon battery modules were encapsulated and prepared using various encapsulation films according to the conventional method. The specific steps include: stacking from bottom to top to obtain a pre-laminated part, the order is: photovoltaic ultra-white embossed coated glass, encapsulation film, TOPCon crystalline silicon cell, encapsulation film and CPC structure photovoltaic backplane; then placing the stacked pre-laminated part into a vacuum laminator for lamination, the lamination temperature is 147°C, the vacuum time is 4 minutes, and the pressure holding time is 15 minutes. The photovoltaic module laminate obtained by the lamination packaging process is cooled, trimmed, framed and connected to a junction box to obtain a photovoltaic module, and its power attenuation after HAST 96h and DH 1000h is tested. The test method refers to IEC60904-1:2006. The test results are shown in Table 2:

[0102] Table 2 TOPCon battery module test results corresponding to different encapsulation films

[0103]

[0104]

[0105] According to the data in Table 2, we can see that:

[0106] The power attenuation of the TOPCon battery assembly HAST 96h further prepared by the encapsulation films provided in Examples 1 to 4 is 1.85-3.54%, and the power attenuation of the DH1000h is 1.89-4.02%.

[0107] From the data of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4, it can be seen that the moisture and heat resistance of the TOPCon battery assembly further prepared by introducing SEEPS resin or SEBS resin into the encapsulation film provided by the present invention is significantly improved, and the HAST 96h and DH1000h power reductions meet the standard requirement of <5%; while the TOPCon battery single-glass assembly further prepared by using conventional POE, EP, EPE and EVA encapsulation films provided by the data of Comparative Examples 1 to 4 has poor moisture and heat aging resistance, and the HAST 96h and DH1000h power attenuation are greater than the minimum standard requirement of 5%.

[0108] Comparing the data of Examples 1-2 and Examples 3-4, it can be seen that the wet heat aging resistance of the encapsulation film of Examples 1-2 with an acid binding agent is significantly better than that of the encapsulation film of Examples 3-4 without an acid binding agent.

[0109] Comparing the data of Example 1 and Example 5, it can be seen that the packaging film of Example 5 without maleic anhydride grafting modification delaminated and had water ingress at the edge after the HAST96h test.

[0110] The applicant declares that the present invention uses the above-mentioned embodiments to illustrate a synergistic double-layer co-extruded encapsulation film and its preparation method and application, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, that is, it does not mean that the present invention must rely on the above-mentioned embodiments to be implemented.
