[0031] To solve the technical problems in the prior art, this application provides a solar cell, which can provide a relatively corrosion-resistant isolation adhesive layer, so that the isolation adhesive layer can still provide a good anti-wear function in the subsequent processes of the solar cell, which is beneficial to improving the quality of the solar cell. At the same time, there is no need to replenish the isolation adhesive layer midway, saving the use of materials and being beneficial to saving production costs.

[0032] Figure 1-2 A solar cell provided by an embodiment of the present application includes a cell body 1 and a spacer layer 2. The spacer layer 2 is disposed on one surface of the cell body 1. In the present invention, it is disposed on the light-facing surface 3 of the cell body 1 to replace the contact between the cell body 1 and other objects, reducing the scratching and wear between the cell body 1 and other objects, such as a conveyor belt or other cells, and enhancing the anti-wear performance of the cell body 1 during the manufacturing process. This includes, but is not limited to, the case where it can also be disposed on the backlight surface of the cell body 1, which can be specifically set according to the actual situation. Among them, under the condition that the etching temperature is 40 - 45 °C, the corrosion rate of the spacer layer 2 in the etching solution from the edge to the center direction is less than 0.167 μg / s. In an embodiment of the present invention, the etching solution is a sodium hydroxide solution, specifically a solution with an alkali concentration of 5 - 7%. Specifically, it can be a solution with an alkali concentration of 5%, a solution with an alkali concentration of 6%, a solution with an alkali concentration of 7%, or a solution with an alkali concentration that is any value other than the aforementioned three in the range of 5 - 7%. Since the alkalinity is relatively strong, the corrosion rate of the spacer layer 2 is relatively low under such strong alkalinity, that is, the spacer layer 2 has strong corrosion resistance. In an embodiment of the present invention, the etching temperature is 40 - 45 °C, specifically it can be 40 °C, 41 °C, 42 °C, 43 °C, 44 °C, 45 °C, or any temperature value other than the aforementioned temperatures in the range of 40 - 45 °C. Due to process reasons, the cell body 1 needs to be immersed in the solution for a period of time. The following table shows the experimental data of the corrosion rate of the spacer layer 2 at different times and different temperatures:

[0033]

[0034]

[0035] In an embodiment of the present invention, the total area of the spacer layer 2 accounts for 10% - 50% of the total area of the cell body 1 on the surface where it is located. With a better ability to reduce the scratching and wear with external objects such as a conveyor belt, the area ratio is not too large, that is, it is not too small to provide a good ability to reduce scratching and wear, nor too large to cause material waste. Specifically, when the total area of the spacer layer 2 accounts for 35% of the total area of the cell body 1 on the surface where it is located, the effect is the best. As a specific embodiment, the spacer layer 2 can also be disposed on the entire surface of the cell body 1.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present invention, the isolation adhesive layer 2 includes a plurality of isolation adhesive dots 4, and the plurality of isolation adhesive dots 4 are uniformly distributed on the light-facing surface 3 of the battery cell body 1. By being uniformly distributed on one surface of the battery cell body 1, the ability of the battery cell body 1 to reduce scratching and wear on this surface can be effectively improved; the shape of the isolation adhesive dot 4 is preferably a regular cylindrical shape, a regular conical shape, a regular pyramid shape or a regular prism shape, including but not limited to this, and can also be an inverted cylindrical shape, an inverted conical shape, an inverted pyramid shape or an inverted prism shape, and can be specifically set according to actual needs. Please refer to Figure 3-4 , as some other embodiments, the isolation adhesive layer 2 may also only include a plurality of isolation adhesive strips 5, or include a combination of isolation adhesive dots 4 and isolation adhesive strips 5, and can be specifically set according to the actual situation, as long as it satisfies having better corrosion resistance and increasing the ability of the battery cell body 1 to reduce scratching and wear.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, the isolation adhesive dot 4 protrudes away from the battery cell body 1, and the protruding amplitude gradually increases from the edge to the center. With such a structure, after the isolation adhesive dot 4 is soaked in the alkaline solution for a period of time, there is still more material remaining in the middle position due to its relatively thick thickness, so that it can still better replace the battery cell body 1 to contact other objects subsequently.

[0038] As a specific embodiment, when the isolation adhesive dot 4 is a quadrangular prism shape, its aspect ratio is 3 - 10, and the specific ratio can be 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or any ratio other than the foregoing in 3 - 10; the distance between two adjacent isolation adhesive dots 4 is 2 - 5 mm, and the specific distance value can be 2, 3, 4, 5 or any distance value other than the foregoing in 2 - 5, and can be specifically selected according to the required wear resistance of the light-facing surface 3 of the battery cell body 1 in practice. When the distance between two adjacent isolation adhesive dots 4 is relatively close, the light-facing surface of the battery cell body 1 has better ability to reduce scratching and wear, but more isolation adhesive dots 4 need to be set; when the distance between two adjacent isolation adhesive dots 4 is relatively far, the light-facing surface 3 of the battery cell body 1 has relatively weak ability to reduce scratching and wear, but the number of isolation adhesive dots 4 set is relatively small. When the distance between two adjacent isolation adhesive dots 4 is 3 mm, the effect is the best.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness dimension of the isolation adhesive dot 4 is 4 - 60 μm, and can be specifically selected according to the required wear resistance of the light-facing surface 3 of the battery cell body 1 in practice. When the isolation adhesive dot 4 is a cylinder, its diameter is 700 μm, its thickness is 20 μm, and the distance between two adjacent isolation adhesive dots 4 is 3 mm, the light-facing surface of the battery cell body 1 has better ability to reduce scratching and wear while setting a relatively small number of isolation adhesive dots 4.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present invention, the isolation adhesive layer 2 of the present invention comprises acrylate resin. Specifically, by mass percentage, it includes 65-75% acrylate resin, 7-13% isobornyl acrylate, 10-20% polyurethane acrylate, 1.5-2.5% transparent polystyrene, and 2-4% mixed initiator, where the mixed initiator is benzophenone, benzoin ether, or a mixture of both.
