Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaics, and in particular to a preparation process of a self-cleaning, hydrophobic, and corrosion-resistant solar photovoltaic aluminum profile. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous growth of global energy demand and the emphasis on environmental protection, solar photovoltaic power generation has received widespread attention as a clean and renewable energy source. Photovoltaic systems directly convert solar energy into electrical energy through the photoelectric conversion process, playing an important role in energy transformation. The reliability and efficiency of photovoltaic modules are crucial to the overall system performance, and the aluminum profiles used to support photovoltaic modules play an important role in this. Photovoltaic aluminum profiles are usually used to support and fix photovoltaic modules. Their materials are generally selected from lightweight, high-strength and corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys to ensure structural stability and life. Compared with other metal materials, aluminum alloys are not only light in weight and easy to install, but also have excellent anti-oxidation and anti-corrosion properties, and can adapt to a variety of complex environments, including coastal areas, deserts and high-humidity areas. At the same time, aluminum profiles have good flexibility in processing and forming, and can be customized according to different design requirements to adapt to photovoltaic modules of various specifications.

[0003] BIPV technology integrates solar photovoltaic modules directly into the building structure to achieve an organic combination of the building's power generation function and architectural aesthetics, so that it can meet energy needs without affecting the building's appearance and function. In this context, the development of photovoltaic aluminum profiles becomes the key. Compared with traditional independent photovoltaic systems, BIPV systems require photovoltaic modules to be closely integrated with building materials (such as curtain walls, roofs, windows, etc.), so higher requirements are placed on the structural design of aluminum profiles. BIPV photovoltaic aluminum profiles need to have the following characteristics: high strength and light weight, excellent corrosion resistance and weather resistance, convenience of installation and maintenance, beauty and integration. The existing photovoltaic aluminum profiles suitable for BIPV are mostly drained by setting multiple drainage strips on the surface. The drainage strips are mostly set in a triangular shape, and the number is large, but the specifications are small, which makes the extrusion of aluminum profiles more precise, the process is difficult to control, the scrap rate is high, and it is not convenient to clean.

[0004] In view of this, the inventor of this case conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned issues, which led to the emergence of this case. [Summary of the invention]

[0030] Embodiment 1

[0031] This embodiment provides a preparation process of a self-cleaning hydrophobic and corrosion-resistant solar photovoltaic aluminum profile, wherein the surface of the aluminum profile is coated with a self-cleaning hydrophobic and corrosion-resistant layer, and the preparation process of the self-cleaning hydrophobic and corrosion-resistant layer comprises the following steps:

[0032] Step 1: Pretreatment of raw materials: pretreatment of hydrophobic nanoparticles to ensure uniform dispersion in the solvent; placing 12-18 parts of hydrophobic nanoparticles in 36-54 parts of ethanol solution and dispersing them using an ultrasonic disperser; using ethanol solution to dissolve and disperse the nanoparticles will help uniform spraying of subsequent coatings.

[0033] Step 2: Prepare a base solution, add 45-55 parts of a hydrophobic polymer matrix into 8-12 parts of a MEK solvent, stir until completely dissolved to form a polymer solution, slowly add dispersed hydrophobic nanoparticles into the polymer solution, and keep stirring at a low speed to ensure uniform mixing; add 2-4 parts of a cross-linking agent and 2-4 parts of an adhesive and stir evenly, which helps to enhance the adhesion and adhesion between the hydrophobic nanoparticles and the hydrophobic polymer matrix; add 3-5 parts of a UV stabilizer and 2-4 parts of an antibacterial preservative, and continue stirring until uniform; a coating solution is formed.

[0034] Step 3: Use high-voltage electrostatic spraying to spray the coating solution onto the aluminum profile, place the aluminum profile in an oven, and bake at 120-150°C for 1-2 hours until it is completely cured, and finally form a self-cleaning, hydrophobic, and corrosion-resistant layer.

[0035] The preparation process of the self-cleaning, hydrophobic and corrosion-resistant solar photovoltaic aluminum profile in this embodiment is made of an optimized combination of hydrophobic nanoparticles, hydrophobic polymers, UV stabilizers and other ingredients. Through reasonable spraying and curing treatments, a uniform and stable self-cleaning, hydrophobic and corrosion-resistant coating is formed on the surface of the aluminum profile, making the aluminum profile easy to clean and highly weather-resistant. It also eliminates the need to set numerous drainage strips on the surface of the aluminum profile, reducing the extrusion requirements and scrap rate of the aluminum profile.

[0037] In this embodiment, hydrophobic nanoparticles are the key to forming a rough surface. A higher content of nanoparticles will enhance the hydrophobic effect, but too high a content may increase the brittleness of the coating and affect adhesion. The hydrophobic nanoparticles are silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO2) or titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2). Preferably, the hydrophobic nanoparticles are titanium dioxide nanoparticles.

[0038] In this embodiment, the hydrophobic polymer matrix is ​​the main component of the coating, which plays the role of hydrophobic bonding of nanoparticles and ensuring overall hydrophobicity; a high content of the hydrophobic polymer matrix can improve the flexibility and adhesion of the coating and ensure durability. The hydrophobic polymer matrix is ​​a fluorinated polymer, preferably, the fluorinated polymer is any one of polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, perfluoroalkoxy polymer, and fluorinated ethylene propylene.

[0039] In this embodiment, the cross-linking agent and the adhesive ensure the adhesion and durability of the coating, ensure that the coating is firmly attached to the surface of the aluminum profile, and enhance the bonding between the hydrophobic nanoparticles and the hydrophobic polymer matrix. Preferably, the cross-linking agent is KH550 silane coupling agent; and the adhesive is siloxane.

[0040] In this embodiment, the UV stabilizer is used to protect the durability of the coating and avoid aging caused by UV rays. Preferably, the UV stabilizer is zinc oxide.

[0041] In this embodiment, the antimicrobial preservative is silver nanoparticles. If used in a humid or coastal environment, the ratio of the antimicrobial agent to the preservative is usually 1% to 5%, and their addition amount should be controlled under the premise of effectively inhibiting microbial growth and corrosion without affecting other properties of the coating.

[0083] Table 1 Parameters of hydrophobic and anti-corrosion performance of aluminum profiles in each experimental group and comparison group

[0084]

[0085]

[0086] The strength of the hydrophobic ability is determined by testing the contact angle between the liquid and the aluminum profile surface. For example, a contact angle of 90° indicates that the liquid and the aluminum profile surface are neither particularly friendly nor particularly repulsive; when the contact angle is <90°, the interaction between the liquid and the aluminum profile surface is strong, and the liquid can quickly and evenly cover the solid surface. This phenomenon is called hydrophilicity; when the contact angle is >When the contact angle is 90°, the interaction force between the liquid and the aluminum profile surface is weak, which makes it difficult for the liquid to evenly cover the solid surface. This phenomenon is called hydrophobicity. When the contact angle is 90°, the liquid is neither strongly attracted nor strongly repelled by the aluminum profile surface, and is in an intermediate state. In this state, the liquid may show partial wetting or non-wetting, depending on other factors such as liquid surface tension and aluminum profile surface roughness. The following conclusions can be drawn from Table 1:

[0087] 1. The contact angles of the aluminum profiles in experimental groups 1-6 are all ≥90°, indicating that the self-cleaning hydrophobic and corrosion-resistant layer on the surface of the aluminum profile makes the aluminum profile highly hydrophobic, and the interaction force between the liquid (rainwater) and the surface of the aluminum profile is weak, so it is not easy to adhere to the surface of the aluminum profile, and has a self-cleaning effect.

[0088] 2. The surface coating of the aluminum profile in comparison group 1 does not add a hydrophobic polymer matrix, and the contact angle is <90°, which shows hydrophilicity and is more susceptible to the attachment of liquids and impurities.

[0089] 3. The surface coating of the aluminum profile in comparison group 2 does not contain silver nanoparticles, has poor anti-corrosion ability, and is unqualified.
