Therefore, the decommissioning and recycling of the waste photovoltaic modules are more and more important. At present, materials such as glass, copper, aluminum, silicon, silver, gallium, indium and the like in the photovoltaic module can be recycled, so that the recycled photovoltaic module has important economic value.
In the materials and the structure of the photovoltaic module, the photovoltaic back plate is a protective material used on the back surface of the module and is used for protecting the service life of a battery plate in the module in an outdoor severe environment for 25 years or even longer, the photovoltaic back plate is composed of a multilayer composite structure, most of the materials in the composite structure also contain fluorine materials, so that the back plate on the photovoltaic module has excellent weather resistance, water vapor barrier property, electric insulation property, dimensional stability, tearing resistance and the like. However, if the fluorine-containing back plate is not properly disassembled and disposed, the environment is greatly polluted, so that the clean energy product is not clean due to improper recycling. In addition, when the photovoltaic modules made of different backboard materials are disassembled, the peel strength between the photovoltaic backboard and the EVA adhesive layer in some photovoltaic modules can reach 40N/10mm under the test condition of 180 degrees, and the peel strength can reach more than 120N/10mm in some photovoltaic modules. This allows some of the backsheet material to remain adhered to the photovoltaic cell using the same recycling process.
Therefore, in order to more effectively recycle photovoltaic modules, it is necessary to find a method for peeling back sheets in different photovoltaic modules.

The application provides a method for stripping a back plate of a photovoltaic module, which comprises the following steps: the method comprises the steps of analyzing the components of a back plate of a photovoltaic assembly to be peeled by using a nondestructive testing analysis method, determining whether the back plate contains fluorine, selecting a corresponding back plate peeling process according to whether the back plate contains fluorine, and peeling the back plate of the photovoltaic assembly.
Photovoltaic module generally refers to solar photovoltaic module, wherein except the frame, main material and structure among the photovoltaic module mainly have from top to bottom: glass, a photovoltaic adhesive film (mainly an EVA material), a crystalline silicon solar cell, a photovoltaic adhesive film, a back plate and the like. The photovoltaic back plate is a packaging material on the back of the photovoltaic module, and is mainly used for resisting the corrosion of the environment such as damp and hot to the materials such as a battery plate and a packaging adhesive film, blocking oxygen to prevent the internal oxidation of the module, and playing the roles of weather resistance and insulation protection.
For the structure of the photovoltaic back plate, the composite layer film is the mainstream technology, and the core of the composite layer film mainly has a three-layer structure, which comprises:
(1) Outer protective layer (weather-resistant layer): for good weather resistance, most of the outer layer materials are fluorine-containing, and specifically, the outer layer materials can be divided into a fluorine film layer and a fluorine coating layer, and two common films in the fluorine film layer are PVF (polyvinyl fluoride, commonly called T film) and PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride, commonly called K film). Further, there are an ETFE film (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer), an ECTFE film (ethylene-vinylidene fluoride copolymer), a THV film (tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene-vinylidene fluoride copolymer), and the like, but they have not been applied to photovoltaic back sheets on a large scale due to raw material supply capacity and cost. The fluorine-containing film layer has good weather resistance mainly due to the fact that C-F bonds exist in the fluorine-containing film layer, the C-F bonds have high bonding energy (485 KJ/mol), the C-F bonds are the largest in organic compound covalent bonds, and F atoms have extremely low polarizability, high electronegativity and smaller van der Waals radii.
(2) An intermediate layer: the support function is achieved, the high and low temperature resistance is achieved, the mechanical performance is stable, the electric insulation is excellent, the creep resistance, the fatigue resistance, the friction resistance and the dimensional stability are good, the gas and steam permeability is low, and the PET material (polyethylene terephthalate) is generally used.
(3) Inner layer (laminate tie layer): a modified fluorine-containing material or a highly adhesive EVA, PE, PA film or the like is generally used because of its excellent adhesion to a photovoltaic adhesive film, but a fluorine-containing film layer is often used as a lamination adhesive layer in the market.
For fluorine-containing backsheets, because the fluorocarbon polymer has a strong chemical structure, typical landfill treatments cannot degrade the composition even for thousands of years, and if incinerated, colorless, pungent, toxic hydrogen fluoride gas is produced. Therefore, for old and useless photovoltaic module, in order to prevent fluorine-containing photovoltaic backplate polluting the environment, need when dismantling old and useless subassembly, peel off fluorine-containing backplate as far as possible totally, prevent its adhesion on the battery piece, and then discharge in the environment along with battery piece treatment waste liquid.
The photovoltaic module is mainly prepared by a hot pressing process, the laid battery module is placed in a laminating machine, air in the module is pumped out by vacuumizing and laminated, and the EVA is melted by heating to bond the battery piece, the glass and the back plate together to form a sealing module. After lamination, the peel strength between the photovoltaic back plate and the adhesive film EVA material has a large difference due to the difference of the back plate materials. In addition, in the structure of the photovoltaic back plate, silica gel is used as an adhesive between layers, so that the peel strength between the back plate material and the silica gel can reach more than 10N/10mm under the test condition of 180 degrees.
In order to recover the crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules of different product categories more effectively and more environmentally, the crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules to be stripped are placed on the stripping device, the components of the back plates of the photovoltaic modules to be stripped are analyzed by using a nondestructive testing analysis test method, then corresponding back plate stripping processes are selected according to the component analysis results of the back plates, and the back plates of the photovoltaic modules are stripped, as shown in fig. 1.
Further, whether the photovoltaic back sheet to be stripped contains fluorine or not can be confirmed according to the composition analysis result of the back sheet, and the selection is carried out according to whether the photovoltaic back sheet contains fluorine or not. As shown in fig. 2, according to the detection result of the nondestructive testing analysis of the photovoltaic back sheet, it is determined whether the photovoltaic back sheet contains fluorine, if the back sheet does not contain fluorine, the back sheet is a fluorine-free back sheet, and then a peeling process in a corresponding manner, such as mechanical peeling, manual peeling, etc., is performed according to the fluorine-free back sheet. And if the back plate contains fluorine according to the component detection result of the photovoltaic back plate, selecting a stripping process of the fluorine-containing back plate to strip the photovoltaic back plate.
In some alternatives of the present application, the non-destructive inspection analysis method comprises an FTIR infrared spectroscopy analysis method. The method has the characteristics that: (1) fast; (2) non-contact; (3) no direct damage to the backing plate; (4) A qualitative measurement result can be formed, whether the back plate contains fluorine or does not contain fluorine can be judged, and particularly, the fluorine-containing back plate can be judged to be a PVF back plate, a PVDF back plate or other back plate materials; (5) According to the comparison between the generated infrared absorption spectrum and the corresponding standard spectrum, the component types of the materials contained in the back plate can be rapidly determined.
It should be noted that, in a photovoltaic cell product, a plurality of different crystalline silicon solar cells are arranged, and voids often remain between the different cells, and when a hot pressing process is performed subsequently, air between the cells is exhausted, and only a glass plate, an EVA glue layer and a back plate remain in the voids, while the EVA glue layer and the glass are substantially transparent. Therefore, when nondestructive testing is performed, the testing can be performed through the pores between the battery pieces, and the composition of the back sheet material can be confirmed.
In some preferred embodiments, after confirming that the photovoltaic back sheet to be peeled contains fluorine, it is further required to identify whether the back sheet is made of PVF or PVDF according to the result of nondestructive testing analysis, and then select a corresponding fluorine-containing back sheet peeling process according to the actual fluorine-containing material.
Specifically, if the photovoltaic back plate is determined to be made of PVF material after FTIR infrared spectrum analysis test results, other types of nondestructive tests need to be performed on the photovoltaic back plate to determine the actual aging service age of the photovoltaic module, and then the corresponding back plate stripping process is selected according to the actual aging service age.
Optionally, the other types of non-destructive tests include at least one of an ultraviolet transmittance test, a light transmittance test, a yellowing index test, and a C-F bond content test.
When the actual aging service age of the photovoltaic module is determined, a standard back plate made of PVF (namely, a PVF back plate which is not subjected to aging treatment) needs to be subjected to nondestructive testing; meanwhile, the PVF aging model backplane also needs to be subjected to nondestructive testing, that is, a plurality of PVF backplates with different aging times are tested, for example, the PVF backplane aged for 1 year, the PVF backplane aged for 2 years, the PVF backplane aged for 3 years, …, the PVF backplane aged for 24 years, and the PVF backplane aged for 25 years can be respectively tested; or testing a PVF back plate aged for 5 years, a PVF back plate aged for 10 years, a PVF back plate aged for 15 years, a PVF back plate aged for 20 years and a PVF back plate aged for 25 years respectively; the test may be performed on a PVF backplane aged for 1 year, a PVF backplane aged for 3 years, a PVF backplane aged for 5 years, a PVF backplane aged for 10 years, and a PVF backplane aged for 25 years, respectively.
After the test result of the photovoltaic backboard to be peeled off, the test result of the PVF standard backboard and the test result of the PVF aging model backboard are obtained, the test result of the photovoltaic backboard to be peeled off is compared with other test results for analysis, the actual use age, namely the aging degree, of the backboard to be peeled off can be confirmed, and the corresponding backboard peeling process is selected according to the actual use age.
It can be understood that, the back sheet material will gradually generate yellowing and other reactions along with the change of the external environment, so that the nondestructive testing results of the back sheets with different aging use ages will also show a certain rule, and the higher the aging degree is, that is, the longer the actual use age is, the lower the softening temperature, the peeling force and the like required by the back sheet during peeling. For example, the light transmittance test results for a brand new backsheet are generally in certain ranges and require certain temperatures and peel forces when peeled; on the other hand, in the case of the back sheet placed outdoors for several years, since yellowing occurs, the test result is lowered to a certain range when the transmittance test is performed, and the temperature and the peeling force required when peeling is performed are also lowered to some extent. Therefore, the aging degree of the backboard to be stripped, namely the actual use age, can be obtained by comparing the test results of the backboard to be stripped with the test results of the backboards with different aging degrees, and then the corresponding stripping process is selected, so that complete stripping can be realized, and the energy loss during stripping can be greatly reduced.
Certainly, if the photovoltaic back panel is determined to be made of the PVDF material, in addition to performing the nondestructive test on the photovoltaic back panel to be peeled off, the nondestructive test on the PVDF standard back panel and the PVDF aging model back panel is also required, the actual use age of the PVDF back panel to be peeled off is determined by performing comparative analysis on the test result, and then the corresponding back panel peeling process is selected according to the actual use age.
In some preferred embodiments, the disassembling process of the back plate according to the age of the practical use further comprises: and establishing a process database, wherein the process database comprises corresponding nondestructive testing results of the back plates made of different materials under different use ages and corresponding back plate stripping processes.
It can be understood that, by establishing a process database for various different backsheet materials, only the photovoltaic backsheet to be peeled off can be detected, and then, the actual usage age of the backsheet corresponding to the actual test result and the corresponding peeling process can be quickly compared and analyzed through data in the process database. Therefore, the back plate can be quickly and accurately peeled off, and the disassembling efficiency of the photovoltaic module is greatly accelerated.
In an optional mode of the present application, the backsheet of the photovoltaic module includes a surface layer, an intermediate layer, and an inner layer, and thus the backsheet of the photovoltaic module is peeled off, specifically including: and peeling the back plate integrally or peeling the back plate layer by layer.
It should be noted that most of the fluorine-containing photovoltaic back panels prepared in the existing production processes are made of a TPT material (an outer layer is a fluorine-containing PVF film layer, a middle layer is a fluorine-free PET film layer, and an inner layer is a fluorine-containing PVF film layer) or a KPK material (an outer layer is a fluorine-containing PVDF film layer, a middle layer is a fluorine-free PET film layer, and an inner layer is a fluorine-containing PVDF film layer). Therefore, the fluorine-containing back plate and the EVA film in the photovoltaic module can be disassembled and peeled off at one time, and the different layers of the fluorine-containing back plate and the different layers can be further peeled off in a layering manner, so that the fluorine-containing back plate material can be recovered more accurately.
In a preferred embodiment, the delamination includes: before each stripping, at least one of FTIR infrared spectrum test, ultraviolet transmittance test, light transmittance test, yellowing index test and C-F bond content test is carried out on the backboard to be stripped, the actual service age of the backboard to be stripped is confirmed, and a corresponding backboard stripping process is selected.
The specific flow chart of delamination is shown in fig. 3. After the fluorine-containing back plate of which the photovoltaic back plate is made of the PVF material is determined according to the FTIR infrared test result, the infrared spectrum result can be further analyzed to determine what the specific component material of the non-fluorine-containing intermediate layer is. Before the first layer is stripped, the back plate of the photovoltaic module is subjected to ultraviolet transmittance test, light transmittance test, yellowing index test and C-F bond content test, then the actual use age of the PVF material of the outermost layer is found from a process database, and then the stripping process of the PVF film layer and the middle layer is selected correspondingly to strip the outermost layer of the back plate.
Then, when the second layer of the photovoltaic back sheet, i.e., the intermediate layer not containing fluorine, is peeled off after the outermost layer of the back sheet is absent, FTIR infrared test may be performed to determine the specific composition materials of the intermediate layer and the inner layer. Most of the non-fluorine containing intermediate layers are of PET and the inner layer is substantially the same as the outermost layer, but it is not excluded that individual manufacturers do not use a fluorine containing film layer in the inner layer and therefore need to determine this by non-destructive testing by FTIR. After the middle layer is determined to be made of the PET material and the inner layer is made of the PVF material containing fluorine, light transmittance testing and yellowing index testing are carried out, then the actual use age of the middle layer is found from a process database, and then the middle layer of the back plate is peeled by selecting the peeling process of the corresponding PET film layer and the inner layer.
And then, when the remaining inner layer of the photovoltaic backboard is stripped, after the material of the film layer is determined to be PVF material, carrying out ultraviolet transmittance test, light transmittance test, yellowing index test and C-F bond content test on the photovoltaic module of the backboard with the remaining inner layer film, finding out the actual service age of the inner layer from a process database, selecting a stripping process of the corresponding PVF film layer and the EVA adhesive film, and stripping the inner layer of the backboard.
In an optional embodiment of the present application, if the back sheet of the photovoltaic module is a PVF back sheet and the service life is less than 0.5 years, the process parameters for peeling off the back sheet of the photovoltaic module include: softening temperature of the surface layer of the back plate: 170 ℃ or more, the back sheet-EVA softening temperature: more than or equal to 80 ℃, stripping speed: 1cm/min-3cm/min; peeling force: 130N/10mm-170N/10mm. Further, if the whole peeling is carried out, the peeling depth is 300 μm to 400 μm; when delamination is performed, the peeling depth of the outermost layer is 35 μm to 45 μm, the peeling depth of the intermediate layer is 250 μm to 300 μm, and the peeling depth of the inner layer is 35 μm to 45 μm.
In an optional embodiment of the present application, if the backsheet of the photovoltaic module is a PVF backsheet and is used for 15 years, the process parameters for peeling the backsheet of the photovoltaic module include: softening temperature of the surface layer of the back plate: not less than 150 ℃, back sheet-EVA softening temperature: at least 70 ℃, peeling speed: 2cm/min-5cm/min; peeling force: 50N/10mm-70N/10mm.
