Panacol UV adhesive for film lamination of flexible PV modules
Panacol has developed a new UV adhesive specifically for film lamination of organic (OPV) and perovskite-based (PSC) photovoltaic systems: Vitralit UH 1411 is a very flexible, hybrid epoxy resin-acrylate adhesive that cures with UV light.
Vitralit UH 1411 from Panacol has been specially developed for sealing and bonding flexible photovoltaic (PV) modules and can be cured after application using a combination of UV or visible light and heat. This enables high adhesion even in potential shadow zones. Dr. Hönle's in-house LED devices, such as the Powerline 820 HP AC IC, are particularly suitable for curing. The Powerline modules can be arranged in rows without gaps in order to completely irradiate the desired web width. The intensity is adjustable and can be adapted to the web speed in the range of 10 - 100%, so that a consistent curing result is guaranteed. The LED Powerline 820 AC IC HP is supplied and controlled either via the optionally available LED powerdrive IC or via an external power supply unit and customer-side control of the interface.
Optimum adhesive for flexible solar cells
When cured, the hybrid adhesive Vitralit UH 1411 is very resistant to environmental and media influences as well as soft and flexible due to its composition of epoxy resin and acrylate components. Vitralit UH 1411 therefore offers an optimized solution for the integration of flexible solar cells in modern indoor concepts. A key advantage of Vitralit UH 1411 is its high adhesion to all standard barrier films used in the manufacture of flexible photovoltaic modules. The adhesive strength is guaranteed even after high exposure to temperature and humidity. The adhesive is also transparent and non-yellowing, which ensures optimum light absorption and a long service life for the PV modules.
High-tech adhesives for photovoltaic systems
Organic and perovskite-based photovoltaic systems enable completely new applications both indoors and outdoors. The capture of artificial light indoors can be used to power wireless electronics. The flexibility of the new modules also makes it possible to attach them to geometrically challenging surfaces. The further development of adhesive technologies has made a decisive contribution to these advances. Panacol supports these developments by providing innovative high-tech adhesives that can be individually adapted to the relevant customer application.
