Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coatings, and in particular to a water-based two-component polyurethane coating and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] At present, the global demand for renewable energy is increasing, bringing a broader market space for the photovoltaic power generation industry. Photovoltaic modules are the core part of the photovoltaic power generation system, which is mainly composed of glass panels, encapsulation films, cells and back panels. The glass panel is located at the outermost layer of the photovoltaic module, which plays a role in protecting the internal structure and transmitting light. However, the glass panels of traditional photovoltaic modules are usually single colors, such as blue or black, which to a certain extent limits the appearance design and application scenarios of photovoltaic modules. In order to meet the needs of different application fields and designs, photovoltaic module glass panels need a richer color selection so that they can coordinate with the surrounding environment to enhance the aesthetics. However, the color change of the glass panel cannot affect the transmittance, so as to ensure that the photovoltaic module has a high photoelectric conversion efficiency. At the same time, it needs to have good weather resistance to ensure that the color of the glass panel is not easy to fade when used outdoors for a long time, and the performance is stable and reliable.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the relevant technologies mainly change the appearance color of photovoltaic modules by changing the manufacturing process of the cells or applying different colors of paint on the surface of the photovoltaic modules. Among them, the former can change the appearance color of the photovoltaic modules by changing the manufacturing process of the cells, so as to make them emit different colors of light, but this method is costly and not conducive to popularization. The latter can achieve the purpose of changing the appearance color of the photovoltaic modules by applying different colors of paint on the surface of the photovoltaic modules. The pigments used in the paints of this method are usually highly transparent organic pigments, but they will still greatly reduce the light transmittance, thereby adversely affecting the power generation efficiency.

[0061]

[0062] Test Example 1

[0063] The water-based two-component polyurethane coatings prepared in each embodiment and comparative example were diluted with deionized water to obtain diluted coatings; wherein the mass of the deionized water was 13% of the mass of the water-based two-component polyurethane coating; the diluted coatings were sprayed on the surface of the glass panel using a spray gun to form a wet film, and then placed at room temperature for 24 hours to completely cure the wet film, forming a cured paint film (thickness of 0.05 mm) on the surface of the glass panel, and a test sample was obtained, and performance tests were performed, as follows:

[0064] 1. Refractive index: The sample to be tested is cured at a temperature of 23±2°C and a relative humidity of 50±5% for 7 days (i.e., the wet film is cured after it is completely cured), and then the refractive index is tested using an ellipsometer.

[0065] 2. Light transmittance: The sample to be tested is cured at a temperature of 23±2°C and a relative humidity of 50±5% for 7 days (i.e., curing is performed after the wet film is completely cured), and then the light transmittance is tested using a spectrophotometer.

[0066] 3. Color effect: Place the sample to be tested (i.e., the wet film is tested directly after it is completely cured without curing) under the D65 light source of a standard light box to compare the color effect.

[0067] 4. Artificial weathering aging test (UV lamp, 2000h): The test sample is cured for 7 days at a temperature of 23±2°C and a relative humidity of 50±5% (i.e., the wet film is cured after it is completely cured), and then the artificial weathering aging test is carried out using a UV weathering test chamber.

[0068] The test instruments used in this test example are shown in Table 4, and the test results are shown in Table 5. As can be seen from Table 5, the waterborne two-component polyurethane coatings prepared in Example 2, Example 5 and Example 7 have better performance, that is, when the amount of effect pigment added accounts for 3% of the mass of the main agent, they have both a suitable refractive index and a high light transmittance, and a good color effect, while the waterborne two-component polyurethane coating prepared in the comparative example has a low light transmittance.

[0072]

[0073]

[0074] It can be seen from the above results that, compared with the prior art, the water-based two-component polyurethane coating provided by the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0075] 1. No influence on photoelectric conversion efficiency: The present invention adds effect pigments into water-based two-component polyurethane coatings and sprays them on the surface of glass panels. This method does not affect the light transmittance of photovoltaic modules, thereby ensuring the photoelectric conversion efficiency of photovoltaic modules and solving the problem of reducing the light transmittance of photovoltaic modules in the prior art.

[0076] 2. Simplify the production process and reduce costs: The present invention does not need to change the manufacturing process of the battery cell. When preparing the water-based two-component polyurethane coating, there is no need to grind the color paste. It only needs to wet and disperse the effect pigment evenly and directly mix it with other components. The operation method is simple and easy, which can greatly reduce the production cost and solve the problem that the prior art may require complex processes and high costs.

[0077] 3. Improve the aesthetics of buildings: The present invention can create an ideal surface effect according to customer needs, so that the photovoltaic modules not only have the function of power generation, but also have the function of decoration, thereby improving the overall aesthetics of the building.
