Description

Technical Field

[0002] As the global demand for clean energy continues to grow, solar energy has been widely used as a sustainable form of energy, and the number of photovoltaic panels has increased dramatically. However, photovoltaic panels face many problems in outdoor environments, among which dust, dirt, water stains and the adhesion of various pollutants are key factors affecting their performance.

[0003] Especially in the deserted area, dust particles in the air will gradually settle on the surface of the photovoltaic panels, forming a layer of covering, blocking the effective incidence of sunlight, reducing the light transmittance of the photovoltaic panels, and thus causing a significant decrease in the photoelectric conversion efficiency. In addition, water stains left after rain, oil pollution in the atmosphere, and pollutants such as microorganisms will further aggravate this problem. Traditional photovoltaic panel cleaning methods mainly include manual cleaning and mechanical cleaning. Manual cleaning is inefficient, labor-intensive and costly. At the same time, during the cleaning process, improper operation may cause scratches and other damage to the surface of the photovoltaic panels, affecting their service life. Although mechanical cleaning equipment has improved the cleaning efficiency to a certain extent, it also has problems such as large initial investment in equipment, high energy consumption, and the need for regular maintenance. In addition, frequent cleaning operations themselves will also cause certain wear and tear on the protective coating on the surface of the photovoltaic panels.

[0004] Therefore, a new superhydrophobic self-cleaning coating is needed. Summary of the invention

[0089] like Figure 2 As shown, a method for preparing a SiO2 / VTES / MMA composite emulsion specifically comprises the following steps:

[0090] (1) 14.0 g of reactive monomer MMA (methyl methacrylate) and 6.0 g of VTES (vinyl triethoxysilane), as well as 0.35 g of crosslinking agent DEGDA (diethylene glycol diacrylate), 0.105 g of emulsifier AEO-9 (fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether) and 0.045 g of AES (fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sodium sulfate) were dissolved in 40.0 g of deionized water, and magnetically stirred at room temperature for a period of time until a homogeneous emulsion was obtained;

[0112] Example 9

[0113] This example prepares a super-hydrophobic self-cleaning coating.

[0114] The SiO2 / VTES / MMA composite emulsion prepared in Example 5 is used to obtain the super hydrophobic self-cleaning coating of the present technology by the following coating method, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0115] (1) The photovoltaic panel glass substrate was cleaned in acetone, ethanol and deionized water respectively, and then heated in a mixed solution of concentrated sulfuric acid (98%) and hydrogen peroxide (30%) in a volume ratio of 3:1 for 2 h at a temperature of 50°C.

[0116] (2) The prepared composite emulsion was sprayed onto a treated and clean glass substrate using a spray gun, with the nozzle about 15 cm to 20 cm away from the substrate. The spraying time was 2 s, and the spraying was performed three times with a time interval of 10 min each time.

[0117] (3) After spraying, the glass substrate is placed in an oven at 120°C for 1 hour and then cooled to room temperature to obtain a super-hydrophobic self-cleaning coating on the surface of the photovoltaic panel glass substrate.

[0118] The performance characterization test of each of the above embodiments specifically includes the following steps:

[0119] (1) Contact angle measurement: Use a WCA tester to measure the contact angle of a water droplet on the coating surface. Generally speaking, materials with a contact angle greater than 150° are considered super-hydrophobic materials. Figure 3 As shown, the left and right contact angles of the water droplet on the coating surface are both greater than 150°, indicating that the SiO2 / VTES / MMA composite emulsion prepared in Experimental Example 1 has good hydrophobic properties.

[0120] (2) Mechanical durability test: Take a piece of 1000-grit sandpaper, make the super-hydrophobic coating prepared in Example 9 face the rough surface of the sandpaper, place a 100 g weight on the sample to increase the friction between the substrate and the sandpaper, and move the sample back and forth along the ruler for 10 cm. These two movement processes are defined as one friction test cycle. After each friction test, the contact angle of the sample is tested. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, after dozens of load-bearing friction cycles, the contact angle of the coating surface fluctuates only within a small range, and after 60 cycles, the contact angle is still above 150°, indicating that the coating has very excellent mechanical durability. The cross-linked structure significantly enhances the intermolecular interaction force, forming a stable three-dimensional network structure, which can better resist deformation and damage when subjected to external forces, and improves the fatigue resistance and wear resistance of the coating. In addition, the nano-SiO2 particles are connected to the polymer through covalent bonds, which can significantly improve the wear resistance of the coating, thereby extending the service life of the coating.

[0121] (3) Thermal stability test: The nano-SiO2 particles before modification, the modified gas-phase nano-SiO2 particles prepared in Example 1, and the SiO2 / VTES / MMA composite emulsion were characterized using a TG analyzer. The samples were heated from 30°C to 700°C at a heating rate of 10°C / min in a nitrogen environment. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, nano-SiO2 has excellent thermal stability and can still exist at 700 ℃. The thermal stability of nano-SiO2 modified by silane coupling agent is reduced because the coupling agent does not have excellent thermal stability. On the one hand, the cross-linked network delays the thermal decomposition process of the polymer and improves the thermal stability of the composite material; on the other hand, the presence of nano-SiO2 can form a thermal barrier layer to reduce the transfer of heat to the inside of the polymer and further improve the thermal stability of the composite material.

[0122] (4) Chemical resistance test: The coated samples are immersed in solutions with different pH values, such as hydrochloric acid solution with pH = 1, distilled water with pH = 7, sodium hydroxide solution with pH = 13, etc. The immersion time can be set to 24-48 hours. After the immersion, take out the sample, rinse it with distilled water, and measure the contact angle after drying. The treatment results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown in Figure 2, the contact angle remains at 160° with the change of pH value, indicating that the SiO2 / VTES / MMA composite emulsion prepared in the experiment has good chemical resistance.

[0123] (5) Transmittance test: The power generation efficiency of photovoltaic panels without and with the super-hydrophobic self-cleaning coating of the present invention was tested by using a capacitor charge-discharge method. Figure 7As shown. At the beginning of the experiment, the power generation of the two photovoltaic panels was not much different. As the experiment progressed, the power generation of the photovoltaic panel coated with the superhydrophobic self-cleaning coating changed little compared with the beginning of the experiment; the power generation of the photovoltaic panel without treatment decreased significantly. The temperature-current characteristic method is used to calculate the current in each time interval. Using the temperature-current characteristic curve and experimental data, the current in each time interval is accumulated to measure the power generation.

[0124] The above two tests of power generation and power generation show that the super-hydrophobic self-cleaning coating in this experiment has strong light transmittance and hardly affects the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel, indicating that the coating has good light transmittance.

[0125] The above tests further demonstrate that the super-hydrophobic self-cleaning coating provided by this technology has good light transmittance and stability, and effectively solves the problems of low light transmittance and insufficient durability of existing super-hydrophobic self-cleaning coatings.
