Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of perovskite batteries, in particular to a large-area perovskite photovoltaic encapsulation component. Background Technique

[0002] Perovskite batteries are new types of photovoltaic devices. Stability is a major problem that needs to be overcome in the development of perovskite batteries. Among them, the influence of water vapor erosion on perovskite batteries is the greatest, and encapsulation is considered the most effective method to solve water vapor erosion. In the prior art, the commonly used battery encapsulation process includes: placing a layer of POE film on the back electrode of the photovoltaic module, placing an edge sealant on the substrate and on the outer peripheral side of the photovoltaic module, and then covering the cover glass on the edge sealant to form an overall to be encapsulated. The above overall to be encapsulated is placed in a laminator for vacuum pumping and heating, pumping out excess air and water vapor and heating to make the film and butyl rubber melt, and applying pressure through the laminator to bond the substrate and the cover glass as a whole to wrap the module, so as to isolate external water and oxygen.

[0003] However, in actual operation, as the size of the module changes, the size of the cover glass also continuously increases, and the resulting deformation is also greater. When the overall encapsulation is evacuated, the cover glass is prone to deformation. The central part of the glass cover will sink first. During the lamination process, the force is uneven, and the molten film in the center will be squeezed to the periphery. The flow of the film will cause the metal electrodes to overlap and short-circuit, ultimately affecting the performance of the perovskite photovoltaic module.

[0004] Therefore, the utility model aims to develop a large-area perovskite photovoltaic encapsulation component to solve the problems that the cover glass of the large-area perovskite photovoltaic encapsulation component in the prior art is prone to deformation under high temperature and high pressure, the photovoltaic module is easily damaged and its performance deteriorates, and further improve the overall sealing performance and stability.

[0026] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific illustrations.

[0027] See Figures 1 to 5 as shown.

[0028] In the large-area perovskite photovoltaic encapsulation component of the present utility model, the photovoltaic component includes a photovoltaic component formed by connecting a plurality of sub-cells in series. As Figure 1 shown, the photovoltaic component includes a lead wire 10, and further includes a glass base layer 1, an FTO layer 2, a hole transport layer 3, an active layer 4, an electron transport layer 5, a metal electrode 6, a protective layer 8 and a capping glass layer 9 arranged in sequence; wherein the lead wire 10 is welded and fixed to the metal electrode 6. In a preferred embodiment, the lead wire 10 is welded to the metal electrode 6 by an ultrasonic soldering iron. During welding, the lead wire 10 should be completely attached to the electrode to form a good ohmic contact.

[0029] In the present utility model, as Figure 2 shown, adjacent sub-cells of the photovoltaic component are separated independently by a laser etching seam 11 provided on the metal electrode 6. The metal electrodes 6 of adjacent sub-cells need to be completely etched at the end by laser. If the metal electrodes 6 of two adjacent sub-cells are not completely etched or there is overlap, it will easily cause a short circuit between adjacent sub-cells.

[0030] As Figure 1As shown, a buffer layer 7 is coated on the surface of the photovoltaic module near the metal electrode 6, and the bottom of the buffer layer 7 penetrates and fills the laser etching seam 11. In a preferred embodiment, the buffer layer 7 is preferably a silicone-based elastic layer including a polymer and a crosslinking agent, so as to have certain elasticity and sealing performance and can play a good buffering effect. In a more preferred embodiment, the buffer layer 7 is a PDMS material layer. The PDMS penetrates into the P3 laser-etched seam. After heating and curing, a transparent elastic film can be formed on the surface of the metal electrode 6 and in the laser etching seam 11. On the one hand, the elastic PDMS in the laser etching seam 11 can effectively prevent the overlap of adjacent sub-cell metal electrodes 6. On the other hand, the PDMS elastic film on the surface of the metal electrode 6 has the function of buffering pressure, which can effectively solve the problems of deformation of the cover glass, the first depression in the central part, and uneven stress during the lamination process. In this embodiment, the PDMS material layer is a commercially available Dow Corning DC184 silicone layer. The thickness of the PDMS material layer on the surface of the metal electrode 6 is 200 μm to 500 μm, preferably 400 μm.

[0031] As Figure 3 shown, in the present utility model, a protective layer is provided on the buffer layer 7, and the protective layer is a POE film layer or a butyl rubber layer; preferably a butyl rubber layer, and the butyl rubber layer has stronger water blocking ability and can effectively prevent the lateral penetration of water vapor. The end of the wire 10 is first clamped and fixed with a strip-shaped butyl rubber to achieve preliminary wrapping, and then the wire 10 is further tightly wrapped by the butyl rubber layer on the surface of the buffer layer 7. The viscosity and fluidity of the butyl rubber layer can prevent the wire 10 from rigidly contacting the FTO, thereby further avoiding the occurrence of the phenomenon that the formed water vapor enters the cavity channel and damages the performance of the photovoltaic module.

[0032] The photovoltaic module containing the PDMS material layer in the present utility model is compared with the photovoltaic module without the PDMS material layer.

[0033] As Figure 4 can be seen, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic module described in the present utility model before and after encapsulation remains basically unchanged, indicating that the photovoltaic module described in the present utility model has relatively stable performance and is superior to the existing ordinary photovoltaic modules.

[0034] Referring Figure 5 to, it can be seen from the attenuation curve after aging for 2000 hours under the conditions of 85% humidity and 85 °C that the photovoltaic module described in the present utility model has good stability.

[0035] In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0036] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.

[0037] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected to", "fixed", etc. shall be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two elements.

[0038] The above content is a further detailed description of the present utility model in combination with specific implementation manners, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present utility model is only limited to these descriptions. For those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present utility model belongs, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several simple deductions or substitutions can still be made.
