In addition, sufficient densification at the bond site is also required to improve the weatherability of the bond site.
Therefore, the invention aims to develop the conductive silver paste for connecting the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the solar cell piece, which is stable, has high adhesion, high tensile strength and high conductivity and is in good contact with a copper electrode, and is particularly suitable for the field of flexible thin-film solar cells to be popularized.

firstly, weighing 18 mass percent of the organic binder and 3 mass percent of organic matter coated and modified Cu particles, fully and uniformly stirring the organic binder and the organic matter coated and modified Cu particles in a stainless steel round basin, and simultaneously weighing 75 mass percent of silver powder (spherical silver powder with the average particle size of 0.5-3 mu m), 2 mass percent of metal oxide doping auxiliary agent ZnO powder and 2 mass percent of SnO powder (the particle size of the auxiliary agent is equivalent to that of the silver powder) in the other stainless steel round basin for later use.
And secondly, dispersing the mixture of the organic adhesive and the organic matter coated and modified Cu particles obtained in the first step on a three-roll machine for 10 times, then continuously adding silver powder and metal oxide doping auxiliary agents ZnO and SnO powder into the three-roll machine, continuously stirring by using a scraper knife to ensure uniform dispersion until the silver powder and the metal oxide doping auxiliary agent powder are completely added, and rolling the mixture for 25 times by using a three-roll machine to control the rolling temperature and the rolling gap.
And thirdly, testing the viscosity of the slurry rolled in the second step, adding a proper amount of surface modifier butyl carbitol acetate, and adjusting the viscosity to 22000mPa & s. Then, the mixture is stirred manually or is put into a stirrer to be stirred for 30min until the slurry is uniform and the wettability is good.
And fourthly, filtering and packaging.
When the conductive silver paste is used for connecting thin film battery components in series, a proper amount of conductive silver paste is coated on the positive and negative electrodes (copper pole pieces) of two flexible thin film solar components connected in series, and then the conductive silver paste is heated and cured for 25-30 min at the temperature of 110-150 ℃ (the actually measured temperature is 110-120 ℃).
Comparative example 1
In the first step of step (2) of example 1, 2% of the organic matter-coated modified Cu particles were removed during weighing, so that the conductive silver paste components were: 20% of organic binder, 75% of silver powder and 5% of metal oxide doping aid SnO powder.
The other operating conditions and procedure were the same as in example 1, and the viscosity was adjusted to 22000 mPas.
Comparative example 2
This comparative example is the first step of step (2) of example 1, when weighing, 3% of SnO powder was removed, and the composition of the conductive silver paste was changed to: 20% of organic binder, 78% of silver powder and 2% of organic-coated modified Cu particles.
The other operating conditions and procedure were the same as in example 1, and the viscosity was adjusted to 22000 mPas.
Comparative example 3
In the first step of step (2) of example 1, 3% of SnO powder and 2% of organic matter-coated modified Cu particles were removed during weighing, so that the conductive silver paste had the following components: 20% of organic binder and 80% of silver powder.
The other operating conditions and procedure were the same as in example 1, and the viscosity was adjusted to 22000 mPas.
When the conductive silver paste is used for series connection of thin film battery components, a proper amount of conductive silver paste prepared in comparative examples 1-3 is coated on the positive and negative electrodes (copper pole pieces) of two flexible thin film solar components which are connected in series, and then the conductive silver paste is heated and cured for 25min at the temperature of 110-150 ℃ (actually measured temperature of 110-120 ℃).
The conductive silver pastes prepared in examples 1 to 5 and comparative examples 1 to 3 were subjected to a performance test, and after the conductive silver paste was completely cured, the copper electrode was pulled with a 180 ° pulling force, and the test was conducted to evaluate the transverse pulling force. And testing the contact resistance between the cured silver paste and the copper electrode by using a current-voltmeter (two testing ends of the current-voltmeter are respectively connected on the conductive silver paste and the copper electrode). The test results are given in the following table:
Figure BDA0001917541100000131
the test result shows that:
after being cured, the electric conductivity of the conductive silver paste in the embodiments 1-5 is higher than that of the comparative example 1 and is slightly lower than that of the comparative examples 2-3, the contact resistance of the embodiments 1-5 is obviously lower than that of the comparative example 1 and is basically close to that of the comparative examples 2-3; however, the transverse tension resistance of the conductive silver paste in examples 1 to 5 is superior to that of comparative examples 1 to 3, which shows that the addition of the metal oxide auxiliary agent and the organic matter coated and modified metal copper particles in the conductive silver paste has an obvious effect of improving the transverse tension resistance after curing, and the organic matter coated and modified metal copper replaces part of the metal oxide auxiliary agent, so that the conductivity of the conductive silver paste is not too low.
The foregoing are merely exemplary embodiments of the present invention, which enable those skilled in the art to understand or practice the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein may be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown herein but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
