Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of photovoltaic welding technology, and in particular relates to a flux material for photovoltaic modules, a preparation method thereof, and a string welding composite lamination welding process. Background Art

[0002] The photovoltaic module cell welding process involves welding individual solar cells in series to form a cell string, which forms the basic component of a solar panel. The conversion efficiency of a solar panel depends on the quality of its electrical performance, and the performance of the cell string is affected by the quality of the welding of the individual cells and the string.

[0003] Flux plays a crucial role in the photovoltaic soldering process, removing oxides, preventing reoxidation, reducing surface tension, and promoting solder wetting and spreading. Currently, fluxes can be categorized by composition into organic fluxes, inorganic fluxes, and hybrid organic-inorganic fluxes; by activity into strong, medium, and weakly active fluxes; and by cleaning method into solvent-cleanable, water-cleanable, and no-clean types.

[0004] As performance requirements for photovoltaic modules continue to rise, research on fluxes has deepened. For example, patent application publication number CN107322188A discloses a flux for photovoltaic ribbon welding, comprising zinc chloride, ammonium chloride, hydroxy acid, citric acid, triisopropanolamine, dibutylamine, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, acrylic resin, silicon-modified acrylic resin, sorbitol, triethanolamine, a humectant, and deionized water. The flux comprises the following components, calculated by mass percentage: zinc chloride, ammonium chloride, hydroxy acid, citric acid, triisopropanolamine, dibutylamine, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, acrylic resin, silicon-modified acrylic resin, sorbitol, triethanolamine, a humectant, and the remainder being deionized water. By doing so, the flux reduces the surface tension of the solder, improves wettability, reduces post-weld slag, and enhances photovoltaic welding quality.

[0005] For example, the patent document with application publication number CN116493808A discloses a water-based flux for photovoltaic cell welding, which includes the following raw materials in percentage by weight: 0.5-2% activator, 0.05-1% surfactant, 0.05-0.2% corrosion inhibitor, 1-5% auxiliary agent, 0.1-0.5% defoaming agent, and 92-99% deionized water. The flux improves the deoxidation welding fluxing ability, has a lower residual crystallization effect, improves the work efficiency of the photovoltaic module factory, and the lower product raw material cost helps the efficiency of the photovoltaic module factory.

[0006] The flux used in the aforementioned photovoltaic welding process has a weak inhibitory effect on the growth of IMCs during welding, and the amount of atomic migration at the interface between the substrate and the solder is large. Therefore, how to improve the flux's ability to inhibit the growth of intermetallic compounds during welding is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In response to the above problems, in order to further suppress the IMC growth and interface atomic migration during the welding process of photovoltaic modules, the present application provides a flux material for photovoltaic modules, a preparation method thereof, and a series welding composite lamination welding process.

[0008] This application first provides a method for preparing a flux material for a photovoltaic module, comprising the following steps: A: MAL-PEG-NH2 and 2-formaldehyde phenylboronic acid are reacted to prepare a precursor, which is then reacted with a furan derivative to prepare an inhibitor; B: Take the solvent and inhibitor and mix them evenly, then add the activator, film-forming agent, surfactant, pH adjuster, antioxidant, corrosion inhibitor and rheological agent and mix them evenly.

[0009] Furthermore, in step A, the molar ratio of MAL-PEG-NH2 to 2-formylphenylboronic acid is 1:(2-2.5).

[0010] Furthermore, in step A, the mass ratio of the precursor to the furan derivative is (5-10):1.

[0011] Furthermore, in step A, n of the PEG chain in the MAL-PEG-NH2 molecule is less than 6000.

[0012] Furthermore, in the step A, the furan derivative is prepared from phenylphosphoryl dichloride and furfurylamine.

[0013] Furthermore, in step B, the solvent is one or more of ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, propylene glycol methyl ether, n-octanol, tetrahydrofurfural, glycerol, diethylene glycol, and ethanol; And / or, in step B, the activator is one or more of methylsuccinic acid, DL-malic acid, lactic acid, oxalic acid, sebacic acid, azelaic acid, citric acid, salicylic acid, palmitic acid, adipic acid, benzoic acid, and stearic acid; And / or, in step B, the film-forming agent is a rosin-type film-forming agent; And / or, in step B, the surfactant is a nonionic surfactant; And / or, in step B, the antioxidant is a phenolic antioxidant; And / or, in step B, the corrosion inhibitor is benzotriazole; And / or, in step B, the rheological agent is one or more of hydrogenated castor oil, ethyl cellulose, and polyamide wax.

[0014] The present application provides a flux material for photovoltaic modules, which is prepared using the above-mentioned preparation method.

[0015] The present application also provides a series welding composite lamination welding process, comprising the following steps: S1: Install the interconnecting strip on the welding machine; S2: Use coating equipment to evenly apply the photovoltaic module flux material on the surface of the soldering pattern cells or interconnecting bars, and use hot air for preliminary curing; and / or, using a coating device to evenly apply silver glue or solder paste or a photovoltaic module flux material on the surface of the battery or the surface of the interconnect bar, and using hot air for preliminary curing; the battery is one of an HJT / topcon / BC battery, a perovskite battery, and an HJT / Topcon perovskite tandem battery; The photovoltaic module flux material is prepared by the above-mentioned preparation method; S3: The interconnecting strips and the battery grid lines are stacked and pre-welded to form a string; then the welding is strengthened by lamination vacuum heat welding.

[0016] Furthermore, in step S1, the interconnection bar is a SnPb-coated interconnection bar or a SnPbBi-coated low-temperature interconnection bar.

[0017] Furthermore, in step S3, the pre-welding is performed by infrared welding, hot air welding or electromagnetic welding.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects: 1. The flux material of this application is compounded with multiple components, including solvents, inhibitors, activators, film formers, surfactants, pH adjusters, antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors, and rheological agents. It can undergo physical and chemical reactions with the surface of the base metal, forming an adsorption film with excellent wettability, which wets the metal surface. During the welding process, it can dissolve and remove oxides on the base surface, wet and spread with the solder, reduce the formation of intermetallic compounds, and thus improve the weld strength and enhance the performance of the photovoltaic module.

[0019] 2. The inhibitor in this application is prepared by first reacting MAL-PEG-NH2 with 2-formylphenylboronic acid to form a precursor, which is then reacted with a furan derivative to form a dynamic cross-linked network, thereby enhancing the adsorption effect of the adsorption film. During the welding process, as the temperature rises, the DA bonds in the dynamic cross-linked network break, and the dynamic cross-linked network disintegrates, further enhancing the wetting and spreading effect on the base metal surface. At the same time, it also forms a carbon skeleton structure, inhibiting and hindering atomic migration between the solder and the base metal, further reducing the formation of interlayer IMCs, and improving welding strength.
