Dow Corning showcases leading innovative solar solutions
at SNEC PV Power Expo 2015
April 27, 2015 – Global leader in silicon-based solutions Dow Corning will present its state-of-the-art solar solutions during the 9th International Photovoltaic Conference and Expo at booth W4-523 at the Shanghai New International Expo Center in China, from April 28 to 30.
Committed to improving solar energy production efficiency and reducing LCOE, Dow Corning has successfully launched many products that improve solar competitiveness. On exhibit will be Dow Corning® PV-5802 Electrically Conductive Adhesive, for example: a high performance and reliable electrically conductive adhesive for assembling a PV module’s back contact. Also featured will be Dow Corning® PV-6212 Cell Encapsulant, an optically clear silicone encapsulant offering high performance in PID (Potential Induced Degradation) resistance, which has received high recognition in the PV market since it was launched last year.
Moreover, the world’s first silicone encapsulated dual-glass photovoltaic module will be displayed. Dow Corning and BYD jointly developed a total solution for this breakthrough product in the PV market. Beyond providing a silicone encapsulation (Dow Corning® PV-6212 Cell Encapsulant) that offers mechanical, thermal, environmental and dielectric protection, Dow Corning also ensured a bonding solution (Dow Corning® PV-5802 Electrically Conductive Adhesive) to make the new BYD module perform exceptionally well in mechanical load testing as well as hail and ice impact testing-all of which have made this product into an industry game changer. With the commitment to improve solar energy production efficiency and overall cost reduction, Dow Corning also collaborated with Eurotron, the world-leading provider of photovoltaic module manufacturing equipment developed a new type of module base on MWT technology. This collaboration is also leveraging Dow Corning® PV-6212 Cell Encapsulant and Dow Corning® PV-5802 Electrically Conductive Adhesive technology. The full size sample will be exhibited as well. You are welcomed to visit Dow Corning booth to study these breakthrough modules.
