Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic materials technology, and more specifically, to a high-transmittance glass material for photovoltaic modules, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] As the cover material for solar cell modules, photovoltaic glass's optical performance and mechanical reliability directly determine the power generation efficiency and long lifespan of the entire photovoltaic system. However, currently commercially available photovoltaic glass, especially soda-lime silica glass produced using the traditional float glass process, generally faces core technological bottlenecks. On the one hand, due to the unavoidable presence of iron and other impurity ions in the raw materials and the approximately 4% to 8% Fresnel reflection loss on its surface, its actual light transmittance is typically below 90%, meaning that nearly 10% of the incident sunlight is lost before even entering the cell. On the other hand, to meet the long-term service requirements of modules in complex outdoor environments, the glass must possess sufficient mechanical strength and weather resistance. Traditional processes often increase strength by increasing glass thickness or adjusting the composition, but this further sacrifices light transmittance, creating a difficult-to-balance contradiction between transmittance and strength. Simultaneously, conventional glass has limited resistance to UV aging, acid rain corrosion, and wind and sand abrasion, and after long-term outdoor use, it is prone to problems such as transmittance decay and surface damage, further exacerbating light energy loss.

[0003] To overcome these limitations, next-generation high-efficiency photovoltaic modules place near-stringent dual requirements on cover glass: visible light transmittance must consistently exceed 92%, and surface reflectance must be below 4%. This objective necessitates a systematic overhaul of the glass's fundamental components, microstructure, and surface properties. The adjustment space for traditional float glass processes is nearing saturation; simply relying on process optimization or single-function coatings is insufficient to achieve a synergistic improvement in optical and mechanical properties. Therefore, material-level innovation becomes crucial. This involves developing novel high-transmittance glass material systems that incorporate functional components during the molecular network design phase. This allows for the integration of multiple functions, including enhanced light transmission, reflection suppression, and surface self-maintenance, while maintaining high strength and weather resistance. This is not only a direct way to improve the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic modules but also a vital technological foundation for reducing costs and increasing efficiency in the photovoltaic industry, and extending the lifespan of power plants.

[0004] In view of this, the present invention is hereby proposed. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the embodiments described below are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments, and are only used to illustrate the present invention, and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall be followed. Where the manufacturers of reagents or instruments are not specified, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] A first aspect of the present invention is to provide a high-transmittance glass material for photovoltaic modules, wherein the glass material comprises a glass substrate and a nanoscale antireflective film loaded on the surface of the glass substrate; The glass substrate is prepared by the following components in parts by weight: 35-45 parts quartz sand, 20-30 parts limestone, 15-20 parts boric acid, 8-13 parts sodium carbonate, 2-5 parts cerium oxide, 0.5-2 parts zinc oxide, and 0.5-3 parts rare earth oxides; the nanoscale antireflective film includes nano-titanium dioxide and nano-silica.

[0023] As an optional implementation, the weight percentages of the raw material components in the glass material include, but are not limited to, the point values ​​listed below, or any range of values ​​formed by any two point values: quartz sand 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45; limestone 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30; boric acid 15, 15.5, 16, 16.5, 17, 17.5, 18, 18.5, 19, 19. 5, 20; Sodium carbonate 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, 13; Cerium oxide 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5; Zinc oxide 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.8, 1.9, 2; Rare earth oxides 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.2, 2.5, 2.8, 3.

[0024] In a more preferred embodiment, the glass matrix is ​​prepared by comprising the following components in parts by weight: 37-43 parts of quartz sand, 23-27 parts of limestone, 16-18 parts of boric acid, 9-11 parts of sodium carbonate, 3-4 parts of cerium oxide, 1-1.5 parts of zinc oxide, 1-2 parts of rare earth oxides, and 0.5-1 parts of nano-titanium dioxide.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the rare earth oxide includes at least one of yttrium oxide (Y₂O₃), lanthanum oxide (La₂O₃), and neodymium oxide (Nd₂O₃). In some optional embodiments, in addition to the above-mentioned component selection, the rare earth oxide also includes at least one of praseodymium oxide (Pr₆O) and scandium oxide (Sc₂O₃), and the amount of praseodymium oxide and scandium oxide added is not higher than 0.05% of the total mass of the glass matrix. If both praseodymium oxide and scandium oxide are present, the total added mass of the two is used.

[0026] In this invention, a glass network is provided using quartz sand to construct the glass framework, thereby imparting high strength, high chemical stability, and heat resistance to the glass. As a preferred embodiment, the iron content in the quartz sand is ≤50ppm to avoid Fe... 2 + / Fe 3+ This causes light absorption, ensuring high light transmittance.

[0027] In this invention, the calcium oxide component in limestone reduces the high-temperature viscosity of glass, improving melting and forming performance; it also enhances the mechanical strength and weather resistance of the glass. However, excessive limestone may increase the brittleness of the glass. Therefore, in this invention, the weight ratios of limestone, quartz sand, and boric acid must be controlled within the aforementioned range to coordinate and balance the overall performance of the glass.

[0028] In this invention, boric acid is used as a flux during the preparation process and to reduce the coefficient of thermal expansion in the glass material, thereby improving the glass's resistance to thermal shock and adapting to changes in outdoor temperature differences in photovoltaic modules. It can also enhance the light transmittance of the glass by reducing internal scattering of the glass through boric acid, thereby improving the transmittance of short-wavelength light.

[0029] In this invention, cerium oxide is used as both an ultraviolet absorber and a clarifying agent. On the one hand, cerium oxide can effectively absorb ultraviolet rays, reduce damage to photovoltaic cell encapsulation materials, and extend module life. On the other hand, cerium oxide releases oxygen during the melting process, promotes the removal of bubbles, improves glass purity, and can also inhibit the yellowing of glass materials during long-term use.

[0030] In this invention, zinc oxide can improve the chemical stability and mechanical strength of glass materials, while reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion and enhancing thermal shock resistance; in addition, zinc oxide can slightly increase the refractive index and optimize the light transmission interface matching.

[0031] In this invention, rare earth oxides are used to adjust the refractive index of the glass material, filling the gaps in the glass network to reduce light scattering, especially improving transmittance in the near-infrared region. Simultaneously, rare earth elements can convert ultraviolet light into visible light through the down-conversion effect, improving the photovoltaic cell's utilization efficiency of the solar spectrum. Furthermore, there is a synergistic anti-reflection effect between cerium oxide and rare earth oxides in this invention. Specifically, cerium oxide is the dominant element, and through Ce... 4+ / Ce 3+ Redox reaction, removing the yellowing Fe from the glass 2+ Completely converted into Fe with low light absorption 3+ Eliminating the intrinsic light absorption loss of iron impurities at the source, while Ce 3 + No visible light characteristic absorption, and does not introduce new light transmission attenuation; with rare earth oxides as an auxiliary agent: La 3+ / Y 3+ / Nd 3+ By embedding the SiO2 network into the glass, structural voids are filled, increasing glass density and suppressing internal diffuse light scattering. Simultaneously, the refractive index of the glass substrate is modulated to create a gradient match with the surface TiO2 / SiO2 antireflection film, reducing light reflection loss at the glass-film interface. Furthermore, the synergistic effect of these two methods amplifies the effect: rare earth ions stabilize Ce through charge compensation. 4+ / Ce 3+ Valence states prevent the cerium oxide's decolorizing effect from diminishing; simultaneously, La2O3 / Y2O3 broadens the near-infrared light transmission window, and Nd2O3 precisely filters out ineffective spectra, complementing cerium oxide's high visible light transmittance and covering the full effective spectrum of photovoltaic cells; furthermore, rare earth ions allow Ce to... 4+ / Ce 3+ It is evenly distributed in the glass matrix, avoiding the problem of uneven local refractive index caused by adding cerium oxide alone, and further reducing light loss.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the thickness of the nanoscale antireflective film is 50 nm to 80 nm, including but not limited to any one or any two of 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, and 80 (nm). In one embodiment, the thickness ratio of the nanoscale antireflective film to the glass substrate is 1:(15000~20000).

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the mass ratio of nano-titanium dioxide to nano-silica in the nanoscale antireflective film is (1.27~2.56):1.

[0034] In this invention, nano-titanium dioxide is used to achieve self-cleaning of the glass surface. Titanium dioxide exhibits strong oxidizing properties under ultraviolet light excitation, decomposing organic contaminants (such as dust and grease) on the glass surface and reducing the impact of dust accumulation on light transmittance. Simultaneously, it inhibits the growth of microorganisms on the glass surface, making it suitable for humid and hot environments. Furthermore, nano-titanium dioxide can form an anti-reflection layer, reducing reflection loss through interfacial light interference and achieving surface anti-reflection.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the particle size of the nano-titanium dioxide is 5nm to 20nm, including but not limited to any one or any two of the following values: 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, and 20 (nm); the particle size of the nano-silica is 10nm to 30nm, including but not limited to any one or any two of the following values: 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 22, 25, 28, and 30 (nm).

In some embodiments, the homogeneous glass melt can be injected into a mold to form a shape, and the magnetization treatment can be performed while maintaining the mold. In some embodiments, the glass melt is cooled to 1300°C to 1350°C before the shaping treatment is performed.
