Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic module technology, and in particular to a back-contact photovoltaic cell that can prevent stacking scratches during high-temperature passivation process. Background Technology
[0002] Interfacial passivation of photovoltaic cells is a key means to improve the efficiency of crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells. It can deactivate surface defects formed during silicon wafer cutting, thereby reducing the surface recombination of charge carriers. Chemical passivation is one of the more effective passivation methods. Its principle is to deposit a hydrogen-rich dielectric layer, and the free hydrogen released during the sintering process occupies the vacancies of dangling bonds, thereby achieving the passivation effect.
[0003] Because the electrodes of back-contact photovoltaic cells (BC type photovoltaic cells) are on the back of the solar cell and there are no metal electrodes on the front, they are easily scratched when multiple back-contact photovoltaic cells are stacked. Currently, only individual photovoltaic cells can be passivated at high temperature, resulting in low production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this invention proposes a back-contact photovoltaic cell that can prevent scratches during high-temperature passivation stacking. By providing several soft isolation protrusions on the light-receiving surface of the photovoltaic cell, it supports the isolation between photovoltaic cells when stacked layer by layer. This not only protects the photovoltaic cells from scratches during stacking and movement, but also prevents the soft isolation protrusions from scratching the surface of the photovoltaic cells themselves due to their unique flexibility. At the same time, the soft isolation protrusions can withstand passivation temperatures above 300°C without cracking, yellowing, or sticking to the cells. Therefore, it can ensure that the back-contact photovoltaic cells can be directly passivated at high temperatures in a multi-layer stacking manner, improving passivation efficiency.
[0005] The present invention proposes a back-contact photovoltaic cell that can prevent stacking scratches during high-temperature passivation process, comprising a back-contact photovoltaic cell body and a plurality of soft isolation protrusions located on the light-receiving surface of the back-contact photovoltaic cell body; the soft isolation protrusions are used to support the isolation between photovoltaic cells when stacked layer by layer, and the soft isolation protrusions are resistant to high temperature of 300°C and do not become sticky or yellow after 3 hours.
[0006] In this invention, several soft insulating protrusions on the light-receiving surface of the photovoltaic cells are used to support and isolate the photovoltaic cells from each other when they are stacked layer by layer, thus preventing the surface of the photovoltaic cells from being scratched during stacking. At the same time, the soft insulating protrusions are resistant to high temperatures of 300°C and do not become sticky or yellow after 3 hours. Therefore, they can withstand passivation temperatures above 300°C without cracking, yellowing, or sticking to the cells, thereby ensuring that the back-contact photovoltaic cells can be directly passivated at high temperatures in a multi-layer stacking manner, improving passivation efficiency.
[0007] Preferably, the soft insulating protrusion is an adhesive dot protrusion, an adhesive strip protrusion, or an adhesive tape protrusion; Preferably, the height of the soft insulating protrusion relative to the light-receiving surface of the back contact photovoltaic cell body is 5-30 μm; Preferably, the maximum diameter of the projection of the adhesive dot protrusion onto the light-receiving surface of the back-contact photovoltaic cell body is 10-20 μm.
[0008] Preferably, the plurality of soft insulating protrusions are arranged in an array at intervals on the light-receiving surface of the back-contact photovoltaic cell body; Preferably, the sum of the projected areas of the plurality of soft insulating protrusions on the light-receiving surface of the back contact photovoltaic cell body accounts for 1-10% of the light-receiving surface area of the back contact photovoltaic cell body.
[0009] Preferably, the side of the soft insulating protrusion away from the light-receiving surface of the back contact photovoltaic cell body has a planar or curved structure; Preferably, the soft insulating protrusion is hemispherical, cylindrical, trapezoidal, cuboid, or square trapezoidal.
[0010] Preferably, the Shore hardness of the soft insulating protrusion is 50-70A; Preferably, the light transmittance of the soft insulating protrusion is not less than 90%.
[0011] Preferably, the soft insulating protrusion is made of silicone material; Preferably, the organosilicon material comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 70-100 parts of vinyl silicone oil, 30-50 parts of vinyl silicone resin, 4-10 parts of hydrosilicone curing agent, 1-10 parts of inorganic filler, 0-5 parts of coupling agent, 10-30 parts of diluent, 0.1-1 parts of catalyst and 0.01-0.1 parts of inhibitor.
[0012] In this invention, vinyl silicone oil, vinyl silicone resin, and hydrosilicone curing agent undergo a hydrosilylation addition reaction under the action of a catalyst to achieve crosslinking and vulcanization. On the one hand, by using vinyl silicone oil and vinyl silicone resin with low hydroxyl content, low volatility, and appropriate molecular weight, the high-temperature decomposition resistance of the organosilicon material is improved. On the other hand, by adding structural reinforcing fillers, the tensile strength and elongation at break of the organosilicon material are adjusted, thereby significantly improving the cohesive energy density and heat resistance of the organosilicon polymer. This results in the cured organosilicon material having good heat resistance, mechanical properties, and compression resilience.
[0013] Preferably, the vinyl silicone oil is at least one of terminal vinyl polydimethylsiloxane, phenyl vinyl polydimethylsiloxane, or end-side vinyl polydimethylsiloxane; the vinyl silicone resin is at least one of methyl silicone resin, methoxy silicone resin, hydrogen-containing silicone resin, phenyl-modified silicone resin, or vinyl MQ silicone resin. Preferably, the silane curing agent is at least one of trimethylsiloxane-terminated dimethylmethylhydropolysiloxane, hydrogen-terminated dimethylpolysiloxane, or monofunctional polysiloxane. Preferably, the inorganic filler is at least one of fumed silica, glass microspheres, ceramic microspheres, expanded perlite, silica powder, barium sulfate, calcium carbonate, silicon carbide, or alumina. In this invention, fumed silica, glass microspheres, etc. are used as lightweight thermal insulation fillers, which have the characteristics of high softening point and can effectively suppress the high-temperature deformation of soft insulation protrusions, and have good high-temperature stability. Preferably, the coupling agent is at least one of γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, methacryloyloxysilane, or γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane; and the diluent is at least one of a mixture of short-chain alkanes, a silicone oil oligomer, or ethyl acetate.
[0014] In this invention, the silane coupling agent helps to improve the polarity difference between the inorganic filler and the organosilicon matrix, thereby increasing the wettability between the inorganic filler and the organosilicon groups and further improving the bonding effect.
[0015] Preferably, the catalyst is at least one of an amine catalyst, a platinum catalyst, or an organotin catalyst; and the inhibitor is at least one of an alkynol, a modified alkynol, an organophosphorus modified inhibitor, or a maleate ester inhibitor.
[0016] Preferably, the inorganic filler surface is grafted with phenylsilsesquioxane, which is prepared by the following method: After grafting an alkenyl silane coupling agent onto the surface of an inorganic filler, it is then grafted with a phenyl cage-type silsesquioxane to obtain an inorganic filler with a phenyl cage-type silsesquioxane grafted onto its surface. The phenyl cage-type silsesquioxane is obtained by an addition reaction of dimethylsilyl cage-type silsesquioxane and vinylbenzene. The alkenylsilane coupling agent is at least one of vinyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, methylvinyldiethoxysilane, vinyltriisopropoxysilane, methacryloyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, or methacryloyloxypropyltriethoxysilane.
[0017] In this invention, an alkenyl silane coupling agent is grafted onto the surface of an inorganic filler, giving it an alkenyl group. This alkenyl group can undergo addition with the silanium-hydrogen bonds in a phenyl cage-like silsesquioxane, thereby grafting a hydrogen-containing cyclic siloxane structure with a phenyl group onto the surface of the inorganic filler. This structure not only has good compatibility with the organosilicon matrix, improving the system stability of the inorganic filler in the organosilicon matrix, but also introduces phenyl groups, further improving the high-temperature oxidation resistance of the organosilicon material. Furthermore, during curing, it can chemically react with vinyl silicone oils to form a cross-linked network structure, further regulating the structural properties of the organosilicon matrix and improving the stability of the system.
[0018] Preferably, the preparation method of the organosilicon material includes: mixing vinyl silicone oil, vinyl silicone resin, silane curing agent, coupling agent and diluent in proportions by weight, then adding inorganic filler, mixing evenly under nitrogen protection, then adding catalyst and inhibitor, and mixing evenly at a controlled temperature of 15-20°C under nitrogen protection to obtain the organosilicon material.
[0019] The present invention proposes a method for preparing a back-contact photovoltaic cell that can prevent high-temperature passivation stacking scratches, comprising: printing the organosilicon material on the light-receiving surface of the back-contact photovoltaic cell body, and forming a plurality of soft isolation protrusions after curing.
[0020] Preferably, the printing method is screen printing.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) In this invention, by providing a number of soft isolation protrusions on the light-receiving surface of the back-contact photovoltaic cell body, the soft isolation protrusions can form an isolation protection on the surface of the photovoltaic cell during the stacking process, so as to avoid the surface of the photovoltaic cell being scratched. At the same time, by using a specific formulation of organosilicon material, the soft isolation protrusions are ensured to have excellent high temperature resistance and yellowing resistance. If the organosilicon material is printed on the photovoltaic cell to form a number of soft isolation protrusions before the photovoltaic cell is passivated, it can be ensured that the back-contact photovoltaic cell can be directly passivated at high temperature in a multi-layer stacking manner, thereby eliminating the need for inter-cell isolation paper, reducing production costs, and improving the production yield of photovoltaic cells.
[0022] (2) In this invention, a composite organosilicon elastomeric material is generated by reacting vinyl silicone oil, vinyl silicone resin and silane curing agent under the action of a catalyst. The prepared organosilicon material contains a large number of Si-O bonds, whose bond energy is much greater than that of ordinary C-C bonds, giving the organosilicon material excellent high temperature resistance and oxidation resistance, as well as low temperature resistance, flame retardancy, UV resistance and ozone corrosion resistance. Furthermore, by surface treating the inorganic filler, the voids at the particle-polymer interface are reduced, the interfacial thermal resistance of the organosilicon material is reduced and its high temperature resistance is improved. Moreover, due to the introduction of phenyl groups into the structure, its working temperature range is further expanded to -100℃-300℃, which is more heat-resistant than silicone rubber materials without phenyl groups. The heat resistance temperature is further improved, and it can be used for a long time at 350℃. Therefore, it can withstand high temperature passivation. (3) The present invention provides an isolation scheme for high-temperature passivation of back contact photovoltaic cells, which can passivate multiple photovoltaic cells stacked together at the same time, effectively improving the production efficiency of passivating individual photovoltaic cells one by one and reducing costs; the present invention has several soft isolation protrusions formed by high temperature resistant organosilicon material on the light-receiving surface of the back contact photovoltaic cell, and multiple photovoltaic cells are stacked together for high-temperature passivation. After high-temperature passivation, the photovoltaic cells do not stick together, the adhesive dots do not fall off, do not yellow, do not crack, and do not need to be removed after use, and do not affect the battery efficiency.

[0032] In a specific embodiment, the Shore hardness of the adhesive dot protrusion 20 is 50-70A, so that the adhesive dot protrusion 20 can provide sufficient support and isolation when photovoltaic cells are stacked.
[0033] In a specific embodiment, the light transmittance of the adhesive dot protrusion 20 is not less than 90%, and it is resistant to high temperature of 300℃ and does not become sticky after 3 hours.
[0034] In a specific embodiment, the adhesive dot protrusion 20 can be prepared by the following method: The silicone material is printed on the light-receiving surface of the back contact photovoltaic cell body 10, and after curing, it forms several adhesive dot protrusions 20.

[0045] Performance testing: Reference Figure 1 The viscosity of the silicone material described in the examples or comparative examples was controlled at 15000-20000 mPas, and the thixotropy was controlled at 4-5. It was printed onto photovoltaic cells using a dot-matrix printing method and cured in a 180℃ high-temperature oven for 1 minute. Twenty photovoltaic cells were printed, and the cured cells were stacked together and baked in a 300℃ oven for 3 hours to simulate passivation. After removal, the transmittance and yellowing of the silicone material, scratches on the photovoltaic cells, and whether the photovoltaic cells adhered were observed. The results are shown in Table 1 below. Table 1 Performance test results of the photovoltaic module insulating sealing tape described in the examples and comparative examples
[0046] Based on the data from Examples 1-4 above, the present invention can effectively solve the problem of scratches on photovoltaic cells during passivation. Furthermore, in Example 2, after simulated passivation, there was no yellowing and no adhesion of photovoltaic cells, which can meet the requirements of the high-temperature passivation process for back-contact photovoltaic cells.
[0047] Based on the data from Comparative Examples 1-2, conventional high-temperature resistant polyurethane acrylic adhesives exhibit yellowing at high temperatures. Furthermore, after being exposed to high temperatures, the molecular chains gradually age and break down, resulting in a significant decrease in physical properties. In contrast, epoxy resins exhibit very obvious yellowing at high temperatures and become brittle due to their high glass transition temperature, making them unsuitable for this application.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
