Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of adhesive film technology, and in particular to a flame-retardant black encapsulating adhesive film, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of new energy sources and the increasing demand for urban energy conservation, emission reduction, and green environmental protection, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is gradually becoming a future trend in the photovoltaic market. BIPV combines photovoltaic modules with buildings, applying them to rooftops, exterior walls, and other building surfaces. It places high demands on the photovoltaic modules, which must not only meet the functional requirements of photovoltaic power generation but also take into account the basic functional requirements of the building.
[0003] Currently, in order to match the style of buildings, most double-glass modules on the market use black encapsulating film to meet the aesthetic requirements of buildings. However, the requirements for photovoltaic modules to be used in building materials are high. First of all, they need to meet the safety requirements of building materials such as fire resistance and flame retardancy. The fire resistance and flame retardancy of the encapsulating film itself is relatively weak.
[0004] Therefore, developing an encapsulant film with both good appearance and good flame-retardant properties is particularly important for the fire safety of photovoltaic modules. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a flame-retardant black encapsulating film, its preparation method, and its application. The flame-retardant black encapsulating film possesses excellent flame-retardant properties, good adhesion, and high infrared reflectivity. Furthermore, during the lamination process, neither the black film layer nor the white flame-retardant reflective layer exhibits problems such as flow, overflow, overturning, or wrinkling. This ensures that the resulting component has an all-black appearance and further improves the component's efficiency.
[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a flame-retardant black encapsulating film, the flame-retardant black encapsulating film comprising a first black encapsulating film layer, a white flame-retardant reflective layer and a second black encapsulating film layer stacked together.
[0007] The flame-retardant black encapsulating film provided by this invention has a "sandwich structure," comprising a first black encapsulating film layer, a white flame-retardant reflective layer, and a second black encapsulating film layer stacked together. On one hand, by placing the first and second black encapsulating film layers on opposite sides, the resulting flame-retardant black encapsulating film is ensured to have durable and good adhesion while maintaining the overall black appearance of the module, resulting in a good-looking module with transparent and easy-to-clean excess adhesive. On the other hand, by placing the white flame-retardant reflective layer in the middle, it not only provides the encapsulating film with high flame-retardant properties, solving the problem of the film being flammable but not fireproof, but also has good reflectivity, especially high infrared reflectivity, which can further improve the power of the module. Ultimately, the solar cell module containing the flame-retardant black encapsulating film provided by this invention can meet the basic requirements of photovoltaic modules while also satisfying the aesthetic requirements of building materials and the fire-retardant safety requirements.

[0066] Performance testing: (1) Appearance: Visually inspect whether the thickness of the adhesive film is uniform and whether there are defects such as excess adhesive, insufficient adhesive, and bubbles. If none of the above defects are found, the appearance is judged to be good. (2) Reflectance: Tested using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer, in accordance with the test standard GB29848; (3) Initial adhesion: tested using a universal testing machine according to the GB29848 method; (4) Tensile strength and elongation at break: tested using a universal testing machine according to the method of GB / T 1040.1-2006; (5) Burning time: The test shall be conducted in accordance with GB / T 5169.16-2017 "Fire Hazard Tests for Electrical and Electronic Products - Part 16: Test Flame 50W - Horizontal and Vertical Flame Test Method".
[0067] The flame-retardant black encapsulating films provided in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Example 1 were tested according to the above test methods. The test results are shown in Table 1. Table 1 According to the data in Table 1: (1) As can be seen from Examples 1-4, the flame-retardant black encapsulating film provided by the present invention has the characteristics of long-lasting and good adhesion, and can ensure the all-black appearance of the component. The resulting component has uniform thickness, good appearance, and transparent and easy-to-clean excess adhesive. At the same time, it also has the characteristics of high flame retardancy and high reflectivity, which can effectively solve the problem of existing conventional adhesive films being flammable and not fireproof. The reflectivity is 63-77%, the initial adhesion is 116-145 N / cm, the tensile strength is 14-17 MPa, the elongation at break is 527-734%, and the burning time is 557-643 s.
[0068] (2) As can be seen from Examples 1 and 3 and Comparative Examples 1-2, the present invention adds a flame retardant to the white flame retardant high reflective layer, so that the flame retardant high reflective black film has good flame retardant properties; and the basic properties of the film, such as peel strength and tensile properties, can still maintain good performance.
