Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, and in particular to a light conversion agent, a light conversion adhesive film composition, a light conversion adhesive film and a photovoltaic module. Background Art
[0002] As a clean energy source that's abundant and requires no transportation, solar energy holds great promise as a viable alternative to traditional fossil fuels. Consequently, the development of solar energy collection and conversion technologies has become a focus of national and societal attention. Photovoltaic devices, which directly convert solar energy into electricity, are one of the most efficient ways to utilize solar energy. Global demand for installed photovoltaic capacity continues to grow.
[0003] Since most photovoltaic devices can only effectively utilize sunlight in the visible and near-infrared wavelengths, their efficiency in utilizing ultraviolet light (wavelengths less than 400nm) is relatively low. Furthermore, the presence of ultraviolet light in sunlight can reduce the lifespan of photovoltaic devices, especially for heterojunction (HJT) cells, which are expected to replace PERC and TOPCon as third-generation solar cells. The use of light-conversion films can not only effectively absorb ultraviolet light in sunlight, preventing it from damaging the lifespan of photovoltaic devices, but also convert it into usable visible light, thereby improving the photovoltaic device's photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0004] With the development of HJT cell technology, the importance of light-converting films has grown significantly. This is because, to achieve higher photoelectric conversion efficiency, HJT cells sacrifice UV stability in their modules. However, everyday photovoltaic devices inevitably face strong UV exposure. Therefore, using a light-converting film with high UV absorption and strong luminescence for module encapsulation not only effectively absorbs UV light from sunlight to prevent module damage, but also converts the absorbed UV light into visible light, increasing the cell's utilization of sunlight and achieving a gain effect. In short, the development of a high-performance light-converting film is of great significance to the development of HJT cells.
[0005] The core of light-converting film technology lies in the selection of light-converting agents. Currently, common types of light-converting agents include organic small molecules, polymers, quantum dots, and organometallic complexes. However, considering various factors such as cost, dispersibility, light-conversion performance, and visible light transmittance, organic small molecule light-converting agents (compared to inorganic light-converting agents) have the greatest application potential. However, organic light-converting agents currently exhibit poor photostability. Under UV irradiation, their light-conversion ability readily degrades significantly and yellows, which is often an unacceptable defect for film products. In recent years, a series of organic small molecule light-converting agents based on triazole structures have been developed, demonstrating high photostability. These research results demonstrate that the photostability limitations of organic small molecule light-converting agents are not insurmountable. However, there is still a pressing need to develop light-converting films with higher photoelectric conversion efficiency, improved stability, and longer lifespan. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a light conversion agent, a light conversion adhesive film composition, a light conversion adhesive film and a photovoltaic module to solve the problems of low photoelectric conversion efficiency, poor stability and short service life of traditional light conversion adhesive films in the prior art.

[0023] The technical solution of the present invention is applied. The triazole structure is a structural unit of a classic optoelectronic functional material with very unique electronic properties. Specifically, the three connected N atoms on the five-membered aromatic ring of the triazole structure not only enable the triazole to have both the ability to donate and withdraw electrons, but also, compared with imidazole, the triazole structure also has a higher electron cloud density. When the triazole structure is connected to the aromatic ring to form a structure such as benzotriazole or naphthotriazole, the low-density π electron cloud of the benzene ring can effectively alleviate the electron cloud density on the triazole, thereby making the benzotriazole and naphthotriazole structures become very special rich electron acceptors. Such a rich electron acceptor structure can also form an effective conjugated system even if it is connected to some electron-donating groups with weaker electron-donating abilities, thereby realizing the transition and recovery of electrons from the ground state to the excited state, and radiating luminescence. Need to explain in particular, compared to benzotriazole, the naphthotriazole of an extra phenyl ring in the application is owing to having larger conjugated face, thereby make naphthotriazole no matter all have better coordination aspect electron giving, electron withdrawing, thereby when the periphery of naphthotriazole ring is connected some auxochrome groups, naphthotriazole ring often can show the absorption of more broadband.In addition, a phenyl ring more must cause naphthotriazole than the LUMO of benzotriazole lower, therefore, when the peripheral auxochrome group of naphthotriazole ring is identical, naphthotriazole all shows more red-shifted absorption and the emission effect than benzotriazole. In a word, for photovoltaic device, the light-converting agent with naphthotriazole as core has better light-converting performance.Meanwhile, naphthotriazole has more substitution sites, thereby makes it more conducive to the performance of light-converting agent being adjusted and optimized. Therefore, when we adopt naphthotriazole as luminescent core, the periphery of naphthotriazole ring is with some groups with electron donating ability, such as aryl, heteroaryl, amino etc. as auxochrome, just be easy to make naphthotriazole molecule have the characteristic of high luminescence, strong absorption. Further, when we replace the H atom on naphthotriazole with some alkyl, alkenyl, ester chain, particularly long-chain substituent, not only can effectively improve the solubility of light conversion agent, particularly alkyl substituent can also form a protective film at the periphery of luminescent group, thereby improving the light stability of light conversion adhesive film material. Meanwhile, the existence of these alkyl substituents can also avoid the luminescence quenching phenomenon caused by the accumulation of condensed ring aromatic hydrocarbons, and then improve the luminous efficiency of light conversion adhesive film material as a whole. Therefore, the light conversion adhesive film obtained using the light conversion adhesive film composition of the application has excellent light stability and high luminous efficiency concurrently, can effectively play a role for a long time, thereby improving the service life of photovoltaic device (such as photovoltaic module).

To solve this problem, the present invention provides a light-converting agent, a light-converting adhesive film composition, a light-converting adhesive film and a photovoltaic module.
[0026] In a typical embodiment of the present application, a light conversion agent is provided. The light conversion agent is a naphthotriazole compound. The general structural formula of the naphthotriazole compound is as follows:
[0027]
[0028] Wherein, i is any integer from 0 to 100; L i independently selected from any one of substituted or unsubstituted alkylene, substituted or unsubstituted alkenylene, substituted or unsubstituted arylene, substituted or unsubstituted heteroarylene; R1 and R'1 are independently selected from any one of substituted or unsubstituted C1~C 20 Alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 20 Heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 20 Alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted C6~C 40 aryl, substituted or unsubstituted C4~C 40 Heteroaryl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 20 Ester group, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted amino, C6~C 30 aryl substituted or unsubstituted amino, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 20 Cyclic acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 20 Cyclic imido, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carboxyl, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carbonyl, C1~C 20 any one of the substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyl groups; R2, R3, R4 and R'4 are independently selected from H, substituted or unsubstituted C1~C 20 Alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 20 Heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 20 Alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted C6~C 40 aryl, substituted or unsubstituted C4~C 40 Heteroaryl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 20 Ester group, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted amino, C6~C 30aryl substituted or unsubstituted amino, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 20 Cyclic acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 20 Cyclic imido, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carboxyl, C1~C 20 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carbonyl, C1~C 20 any one of a hydrocarbon-substituted or unsubstituted hydroxyl group; wherein the heteroatoms in the heteroalkyl, heteroaryl and heteroarylene groups are selected from any one or more of N, O and S; one or more methylene groups in R1, R'1, R2, R3, R4 and R'4 are optionally substituted by -O- or -S-.
[0029] As a classic building block of optoelectronic functional materials, the triazole structure possesses unique electronic properties. Specifically, the three connected nitrogen atoms on the five-membered aromatic ring of the triazole structure not only enable the triazole to possess both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing capabilities, but also possess a higher electron cloud density compared to imidazole. When the triazole structure is linked to an aromatic ring to form structures such as benzotriazole or naphthotriazole, the low-density π-electron cloud of the benzene ring effectively mitigates the electron cloud density on the triazole, making these structures highly specialized electron-rich acceptors. Such electron-rich acceptor structures can form effective conjugated systems even when linked to electron-donating groups with weaker electron-donating abilities, enabling electron transitions and recovery from the ground state to the excited state, resulting in luminescence. Need to explain in particular, compared to benzotriazole, the naphthotriazole of an extra phenyl ring in the application is owing to having larger conjugated face, thereby make naphthotriazole no matter all have better coordination aspect electron giving, electron withdrawing, thereby when the periphery of naphthotriazole ring is connected some auxochrome groups, naphthotriazole ring often can show the absorption of more broadband.In addition, a phenyl ring more must cause naphthotriazole than the LUMO of benzotriazole lower, therefore, when the peripheral auxochrome group of naphthotriazole ring is identical, naphthotriazole all shows more red-shifted absorption and the emission effect than benzotriazole. In a word, for photovoltaic device, the light-converting agent with naphthotriazole as core has better light-converting performance.Meanwhile, naphthotriazole has more substitution sites, thereby makes it more conducive to the performance of light-converting agent being adjusted and optimized. Therefore, when we adopt naphthotriazole as luminescent core, the periphery of naphthotriazole ring is with some groups with electron donating ability, such as aryl, heteroaryl, amino etc. as auxochrome, just be easy to make naphthotriazole molecule have the characteristic of high luminescence, strong absorption. Further, when we replace the H atom on naphthotriazole with some alkyl, alkenyl, ester chain, particularly long-chain substituent, not only can effectively improve the solubility of light conversion agent, particularly alkyl substituent can also form a protective film at the periphery of luminescent group, thereby improving the light stability of light conversion adhesive film material. Meanwhile, the existence of these alkyl substituents can also avoid the luminescence quenching phenomenon caused by the accumulation of condensed ring aromatic hydrocarbons, and then improve the luminous efficiency of light conversion adhesive film material as a whole. Therefore, the light conversion adhesive film obtained using the light conversion adhesive film composition of the application has excellent light stability and high luminous efficiency concurrently, can effectively play a role for a long time, thereby improving the service life of photovoltaic device (such as photovoltaic module).
[0030] In addition, the preferred L i Independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted C1-C 10 Alkylene, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 10 Alkenylene, substituted or unsubstituted C4~C 40 Arylene, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C40 Any one of the heteroarylene groups; Further, in some embodiments, preferably L i At least one of the following is selected from 1,2-vinylene, 1,4-phenylene, 1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diyl, naphthalene-2,6-diyl, naphthalene-1,4-diyl, 9H-fluorene-2,7-diyl, perylene-3,9-diyl, perylene-3,10-diyl or pyrene-1,6-diyl, 1H-pyrrole-2,5-diyl, furan-2,5-diyl, thiophene-2,5-diyl, thiophene thiophene-2,5-diyl, benzo[c]thiophene-1,3-diyl, dibenzo[b,d]thiophene-2,8-diyl, 9H-carbazole-3,6-diyl, 9H-carbazole-2,7-diyl, dibenzo[b,d]furan-2,8-diyl, 10H-phenothiazine-3,7-diyl and 10H-phenothiazine-2,8-diyl; each of which is optionally substituted.
[0031] In one embodiment of the present application, when R1, R2, R3 and R4 have substituents, the substituents are selected from C1-C6 alkyl, C1-C6 alkoxy, C2-C6 alkenyl, C2-C6 alkynyl, geminal cycloalkyl, C3-C6 heterocycloalkyl, phenyl, anilino, naphthyl, biphenyl, halogen, hydroxyl, carboxyl, nitro, trifluoromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, cyano, amino, amide, C2-C 10 any one or more of the ester groups of ; preferably, the substituents are selected from methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, butoxy, pentyloxy, hexyl, vinyl, propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl, hexenyl, ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl, pentynyl, hexynyl, cyclopropyloxy, cyclobutyloxy, cyclopentyloxy, cyclohexyloxy, phenyl, anilino, naphthyl, biphenyl, halogen, hydroxyl, carboxyl, nitro, trifluoromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, cyano, amino, formamide, methyl formate, ethyl formate, ethyl propionate, butyl propionate, ethyl butyrate, butyl butyrate, methyl hexanoate, methyl heptanoate, and ethyl octanoate.
[0032] Compared to larger molecular weight light-converting agents, the relatively small molecular weight naphthotriazole light-converting agents described in this application not only offer significant advantages in production difficulty and cost control, but also tend to exhibit better photostability and adjustability. This may be due to the relatively small conjugated system of naphthotriazole light-converting agents. Therefore, selecting relatively small substituents within a certain range not only reduces production costs but also allows for simpler and more direct optimization of the light-converting agent's structure, thereby improving its performance.
[0033] In one embodiment of the present application, the above R1 is selected from substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C 10 Straight chain alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 15 branched alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 10 Heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 10 Alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 10 Ester group, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted amino, C6~C 20 aryl substituted or unsubstituted amino, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 10 Cyclic acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 10 Cyclic imido, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carboxyl, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carbonyl, C1~C 10 any one of substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon hydroxyl groups; R2, R3 and R4 are each independently selected from H, substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C 10 Straight chain alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 15 branched alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 10 Heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 10 Alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted C6~C 30 aryl, substituted or unsubstituted C4~C 20 Heteroaryl, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C 10 Ester group, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted amino, C6~C 20 aryl substituted or unsubstituted amino, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 10 Cyclic acylamino, substituted or unsubstituted C3~C 10 Cyclic imido, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carboxyl, C1~C 10 Hydrocarbon substituted or unsubstituted carbonyl, C1~C 10wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 are each independently selected from any one of the following substituents, which are substituted or unsubstituted: n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-nonyl, n-decyl, isopropyl, isobutyl, isopentyl, isohexyl, isoheptyl, isooctyl, isononyl, isodecyl, cyclopropyloxy, cyclobutyloxy, cyclopentyloxy, cyclohexyloxy, hexyloxy, heptyloxy, octyloxy, nonyloxy, decyloxy, vinyl, propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl, hexenyl, heptyl alkenyl, octenyl, nonenyl, decenyl, allyl, phenyl, naphthyl, biphenyl, furyl, thienyl, indolyl, pyridyl, benzofuranyl, benzothienyl, methyl formate, ethyl formate, ethyl propionate, butyl propionate, ethyl butyrate, butyl butyrate, methyl hexanoate, methyl heptanoate, ethyl octanoate, amino, formylamino, acetylamino, propionylamino, butyrylamino, pentanoylamino, cyclopropionylamino, cyclobutyrylamino, cyclopropionimido, cyclobutyimido, carboxyl, carbonyl.
[0034] When the above substituents are preferably selected for R1, R2, R3 and R4, it helps to adjust and optimize the electronic structure of the luminescent core group, while supplementing the requirements for other properties of the light-converting agent during application. Specifically, the presence of an alkyl group can not only minimize the probability of luminescence quenching caused by the accumulation of relatively planar luminescent cores, but also enhance the solubility of the light-converting agent in the light-converting adhesive film composition, thereby improving the compatibility of the light-converting agent in the adhesive film. At the same time, the alkyl group can also serve as a protective layer to improve the stability of the light-converting agent. The role of the alkenyl group is similar to that of the alkyl group, but if the selected alkenyl group is a terminal alkenyl group, the terminal alkenyl group can also undergo a free radical cross-linking reaction with the adhesive film matrix resin, thereby making the light-converting agent more stable in the adhesive film, thereby reducing the migration rate of the additive caused by the high temperature environment in actual use scenarios. Ester groups and other substituents with heteroatoms, such as amino, amide, and carbonyl groups, not only function similarly to alkyl groups, but the presence of these heteroatoms, particularly N, O, and S atoms, can also form non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonds with heteroatoms in the film matrix resin. This hinders the movement of the entire light-converting agent molecule within the film, enhancing its rigidity and, in turn, reducing energy loss and improving light conversion efficiency. Substituents such as aryl and alkenyl groups can also modulate the electronic structure of the light-converting agent, allowing its light-conversion properties to be adjusted and optimized according to application requirements.

[0039] Further, preferably R1 is selected from Further, preferably R1 is selected from Any one of; preferably R5 and R6 are each independently selected from Any one of, further, preferably R5 and R6 are Any one of .
[0040] When further considering the performance requirements of the light-converting agent, it is appropriate to select C4-C8 straight-chain alkanes, C4-C8 alkenes, or C4-C8 esters for R1, while short-chain esters and tert-butyl groups for R5 and R6 are preferred. Dividing the roles of different substituents is a good way to improve the overall performance of the material. Excessively long or numerous alkyl chains can lead to insufficient rigidity or even liquidization, thus compromising its light conversion efficiency. Considering the production cost constraints on molecular weight, C4-C8 substituents are a suitable choice. However, if the peripheral benzene rings of naphthotriazole are unsubstituted, π-π stacking between adjacent molecules will inevitably occur, leading to luminescence quenching. Therefore, the tert-butyl group, as a substituent with the smallest unit size but the best steric effect, is clearly a suitable choice for this application.

This allows the broadband absorption effect of the naphthotriazole ring to be fully utilized, thereby improving the overall luminous efficiency of the light-converting adhesive film material. Therefore, the light-converting adhesive film obtained using the light-converting adhesive film composition of the present application exhibits both excellent light stability and high luminous efficiency, ensuring long-term effective performance and thus extending the service life of photovoltaic devices (such as photovoltaic modules).

[0162] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0163] As a classic building block of optoelectronic functional materials, the triazole structure possesses unique electronic properties. Specifically, the three connected nitrogen atoms on the five-membered aromatic ring of the triazole structure not only enable the triazole to possess both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing capabilities, but also possess a higher electron cloud density compared to imidazole. When the triazole structure is linked to an aromatic ring to form structures such as benzotriazole or naphthotriazole, the low-density π-electron cloud of the benzene ring effectively mitigates the electron cloud density on the triazole, making these structures highly specialized electron-rich acceptors. Such electron-rich acceptor structures can form effective conjugated systems even when linked to electron-donating groups with weaker electron-donating abilities, enabling electron transitions and recovery from the ground state to the excited state, resulting in luminescence. Need to explain in particular, compared to benzotriazole, the naphthotriazole of an extra phenyl ring in the application is owing to having larger conjugated face, thereby make naphthotriazole no matter all have better coordination aspect electron giving, electron withdrawing, thereby when the periphery of naphthotriazole ring is connected some auxochrome groups, naphthotriazole ring often can show the absorption of more broadband.In addition, a phenyl ring more must cause naphthotriazole than the LUMO of benzotriazole lower, therefore, when the peripheral auxochrome group of naphthotriazole ring is identical, naphthotriazole all shows more red-shifted absorption and the emission effect than benzotriazole. In a word, for photovoltaic device, the light-converting agent with naphthotriazole as core has better light-converting performance.Meanwhile, naphthotriazole has more substitution sites, thereby makes it more conducive to the performance of light-converting agent being adjusted and optimized. Therefore, when we adopt naphthotriazole as luminescent core, the periphery of naphthotriazole ring is with some groups with electron donating ability, such as aryl, heteroaryl, amino etc. as auxochrome, just be easy to make naphthotriazole molecule have the characteristic of high luminescence, strong absorption. Further, when we replace the H atom on naphthotriazole with some alkyl, alkenyl, ester chain, particularly long-chain substituent, not only can effectively improve the solubility of light conversion agent, particularly alkyl substituent can also form a protective film at the periphery of luminescent group, thereby improving the light stability of light conversion adhesive film material. Meanwhile, the existence of these alkyl substituents can also avoid the luminescence quenching phenomenon caused by the accumulation of condensed ring aromatic hydrocarbons, and then improve the luminous efficiency of light conversion adhesive film material as a whole. Therefore, the light conversion adhesive film obtained using the light conversion adhesive film composition of the application has excellent light stability and high luminous efficiency concurrently, can effectively play a role for a long time, thereby improving the service life of photovoltaic device (such as photovoltaic module).
