Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of photovoltaic welding technology, and in particular relates to a welding flux material for photovoltaic modules and its preparation method, as well as a string welding composite lamination welding process. Background Technology

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

[0003] Flux plays a crucial role in photovoltaic welding processes, removing oxides, preventing re-oxidation, reducing surface tension, and promoting solder wetting and spread. Currently, fluxes can be categorized by composition into organic, inorganic, and hybrid organic-inorganic fluxes; by activity into highly active, moderately active, and weakly active fluxes; and by cleaning method into solvent-cleaning, water-cleaning, and no-clean fluxes.

[0004] With the continuous improvement of photovoltaic module performance requirements, technicians have deepened their research on fluxes. For example, patent application CN107322188A discloses a flux for photovoltaic welding strips, comprising zinc chloride, ammonium chloride, hydroxy acid, citric acid, triisopropanolamine, dibutylamine, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, acrylic resin, silicone-modified acrylic resin, sorbitol, triethanolamine, humectant, and deionized water. The components of this flux, calculated by mass percentage, include the following: zinc chloride, ammonium chloride, hydroxy acid, citric acid, triisopropanolamine, dibutylamine, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, acrylic resin, silicone-modified acrylic resin, sorbitol, triethanolamine, humectant, and the remainder is deionized water. Through this method, the flux reduces the surface tension of the solder, improves wettability, reduces post-weld slag, and improves the quality of photovoltaic welding.

[0005] For example, patent application CN116493808A discloses a water-based flux for welding photovoltaic cells, comprising the following raw materials in weight percentages: 0.5-2% activator, 0.05-1% surfactant, 0.05-0.2% corrosion inhibitor, 1-5% additive, 0.1-0.5% defoamer, and 92-99% deionized water. This flux improves the deoxidation welding fluxing ability, reduces residual crystallization, improves the working efficiency of photovoltaic module factories, and lowers the raw material cost of products, thus contributing to the profitability of photovoltaic module factories.

[0006] The flux used in the aforementioned photovoltaic welding process has a weak inhibitory effect on the growth of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) during welding, resulting in significant atomic migration at the interface between the substrate and the solder. Therefore, improving 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] To address the aforementioned issues and further suppress IMC growth and interface atomic migration during the photovoltaic module welding process, this application provides a flux material for photovoltaic modules, its preparation method, and a string-welding composite lamination welding process.

[0008] This application first provides a method for preparing a flux material for photovoltaic modules, comprising the following steps:

[0011] Furthermore, in step A, the molar ratio of MAL-PEG-NH2 to 2-aldehyde phenylboronic acid is 1:(2-2.5).

[0012] Furthermore, in step A, the mass ratio of the precursor to the furan derivative is (5-10):1.

[0013] Furthermore, in step A, the n of the PEG chain in the MAL-PEG-NH2 molecule is less than 6000.

[0014] Furthermore, in step A, the furan derivative is prepared by reacting phenylphosphodichloro with furfurylamine.

[0015] 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.

[0016] And / or, in step B, the activator is one or more of the following: 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;

[0017] And / or, in step B, the film-forming agent is a rosin-based film-forming agent;

[0020] And / or, in step B, the corrosion inhibitor is benzotriazole;

[0021] And / or, in step B, the rheology modifier is one or more of hydrogenated castor oil, ethyl cellulose, and polyamide wax.

[0022] This application provides a flux material for photovoltaic modules, which is prepared using the above-described preparation method.

[0023] This application also provides a serial welding composite lamination process, including the following steps:

[0024] S1: Install interconnecting strips on the welding machine;

[0025] S2: Apply photovoltaic module flux material evenly to the surface of the welded patterned battery or interconnect strip using coating equipment, and use hot air for initial curing;

[0026] And / or, using a coating device, uniformly apply silver paste, solder paste, or photovoltaic module soldering flux to the surface of the battery or interconnect strip, and use hot air for preliminary curing; the battery is one of HJT / Topcon / BC battery, perovskite battery, or HJT\Topcon perovskite tandem battery;

[0029] Furthermore, in step S1, the interconnecting strip is a SnPb-coated interconnecting strip or a SnPbBi-coated low-temperature interconnecting strip.

[0030] Furthermore, in step S3, the pre-welding is performed using infrared, hot air, or electromagnetic welding.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0032] 1. The flux material of this application is a compound of various components including solvents, inhibitors, activators, film-forming agents, surfactants, pH adjusters, antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors, and rheology modifiers. It can undergo a physicochemical reaction with the substrate metal surface to form an adsorbent film with excellent wettability, thus wetting the metal surface. During the welding process, it can dissolve and remove oxides from the substrate surface and wet and spread with the solder, reducing the formation of intermetallic compounds, thereby improving welding strength and enhancing the performance of the photovoltaic module.

[0033] 2. The inhibitor in this application is prepared by first reacting MAL-PEG-NH2 with 2-aldehyde phenylboronic acid to obtain a precursor, which is then reacted with a furan derivative to construct a dynamic cross-linking network, thereby improving the adsorption effect of the adsorption membrane. During the welding process, as the temperature increases, the DA bonds in the dynamic cross-linking network break, and the dynamic cross-linking network disintegrates, further enhancing the wetting and spreading effect on the substrate metal surface. At the same time, it can also form a carbon skeleton structure, inhibiting and hindering atomic migration between the solder and the substrate metal, further reducing the formation of interlayer IMC and improving the welding strength.
