[0060] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0061] Example 1: Study on the composition of the photovoltaic glass of the present invention: According to the composition of photovoltaic glass in Table 1, the glass raw materials were weighed, the glass raw materials were mixed evenly and placed in a furnace, melted at 1500°C, and kept at 1500°C for 2 hours to obtain glass melt. The glass melt was poured into a glass mold and placed in an annealing furnace, annealed at 567°C, and then naturally cooled to obtain photovoltaic glass.

[0062] Photovoltaic glass was cut to obtain glass samples with dimensions of 35mm×35mm. The surface of the glass samples was then polished to the target thickness before performance testing was conducted.

[0063] 1) Use an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer to detect the sample composition and a spectrophotometer (PE Lambda 950) to detect the light transmittance of the glass sample; 2) Crush the glass sample and select particles in the 40-80 mesh range as test samples to test water resistance, acid resistance, and alkali resistance.

[0064] The water resistance test is as follows: Immerse the test sample in deionized water at 98℃ for 60 minutes, then remove it, remove the residual solvent, and calculate the glass loss per gram (ug).

[0065] The acid resistance test is as follows: The test sample is immersed in 5% hydrochloric acid for 3 hours, then removed, the residual solvent is removed, and the glass loss per gram (ug) is calculated.

[0066] The alkali resistance test was conducted as follows: The test sample was immersed in a 5% sodium hydroxide solution at 60℃ for 3 hours, then removed, the residual solvent was removed, and the glass loss per gram (ug) was calculated. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0067] Table 1

[0068] Table 2

[0069] As can be summarized from Tables 1 and 2, formulation 14 can achieve a better balance between light transmittance and weather resistance. Formulation 14 is considered the optimal formulation. Table 3 summarizes the optimized composition scheme of photovoltaic glass based on Table 1.

[0070] Table 3

[0071] Analysis based on Tables 1 to 3: After optimizing the photovoltaic glass formulation, the transmittance of the fused sample glass decreased slightly, but the water resistance, acid resistance, and alkali resistance all significantly improved. Specifically: the visible light transmittance (380-780nm) decreased from 91.59% to 91.55%, a limited decrease; the solar transmittance (380-780nm) decreased from 91.35% to 91.29%, a limited decrease; the water resistance loss increased from 423.3 ug / g to 311.1 ug / g, an increase of 26.5%; the acid resistance loss increased from 586.8 ug / g to 402.8 ug / g, an increase of 31.3%; and the alkali resistance loss increased from 987.6 ug / g to 704.2 ug / g, an increase of 28.7%.

[0072] It is evident that the photovoltaic glass prepared by the optimized formula can be applied to harsh marine photovoltaic environments.

[0073] Example 2 uses the glass composition designed with "basic formula 0" and "comparative formula 14" to prepare photovoltaic glass according to the preparation method of Example 1. Then, the extreme weather resistance performance is compared and verified. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0074] Table 4

[0075] As shown in Table 4, the photovoltaic glass prepared by the comparative formulation 14 has more stable performance and is more suitable for the harsh conditions of marine photovoltaic applications.

[0076] Example 3: Comparative formulation 14 was selected. The design incorporated boron oxide, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, zinc oxide, and potassium oxide, increased aluminum oxide, and decreased calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, and sodium oxide. The high-temperature melting performance of the glass melt changed significantly. Through software simulation and actual glass production data, the influence of temperature conditions in the glass manufacturing process on the product was further studied, and the performance of photovoltaic glass was tested, as shown in Tables 5 and 6.

[0077] Table 5

[0078] Table 6

[0079] As shown in Tables 5 and 6, due to the characteristics of its composition and materials, the hot spot temperature of marine photovoltaic glass shows a trend of lower at the beginning and higher at the end compared with ordinary glass. Therefore, in the melting and forming process, it is necessary to adjust the relevant parameters to meet the melting and forming requirements.

[0080] Example 4 Example 4 selected comparative formulation 14. Based on the preparation process of Example 1, the melting and clarifying process was improved. By adjusting the distribution difference between the top temperature of the arch and the bottom temperature of the melting pool in the melting process, the temperature control of the melting hot spot was optimized, as shown in Table 7 below.

[0081] Table 7

[0082] As shown in Table 7, by optimizing the melting and clarifying process, the process and the composition of the photovoltaic glass formulation are better matched, thereby producing photovoltaic glass with high transmittance and good weather resistance, which can be applied to harsh marine environments.

[0083] Example 5: Comparative formulation 14 was selected. Based on the preparation process of Example 1, the process was optimized by adjusting the air-oil ratio of the combustion system, detecting the oxygen content of each small furnace, and testing the performance of the photovoltaic glass. The results are shown in Table 8 below.

[0084] Table 8

[0085] Example 7 Example 7 selected comparative formulation 14. Based on the preparation process of Example 1, the process was optimized by adjusting the molding condition parameters, and the performance of the photovoltaic glass was tested. The results are shown in Table 9 below.

[0086] Table 9

[0087] As shown in Table 9, the forming viscosity of marine photovoltaic glass is higher than that of ordinary photovoltaic glass. Therefore, the forming parameters need to be adjusted to achieve the required forming thickness and quality, and to meet the annealing requirements.

[0088] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not limit the scope of the patent. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of the present invention, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
