Description
本発明は太陽電池裏面保護膜として用いるポリエステルフィルム、すなわち太陽電池裏面保護膜用ポリエステルフィルムに関する。 The present invention relates to a polyester film used as a solar cell back surface protective film, that is, a polyester film for a solar cell back surface protective film.
近年、太陽電池モジュールを用いた太陽光発電システムは、クリーンエネルギーを利用する発電手段の一つとして普及が進んでいる。太陽電池モジュールの構造は、例えば実開平6−38264号公報に記載があるように、一般的には受光側のガラス基板と裏面側の保護膜との間に複数の板状太陽電池素子を挟み、内部の隙間に封止樹脂を充填した構造となっている。 In recent years, a photovoltaic power generation system using a solar cell module has been spread as one of power generation means using clean energy. The structure of the solar cell module is generally such that a plurality of plate-like solar cell elements are sandwiched between a light receiving side glass substrate and a back side protective film, as described in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-38264. The internal gap is filled with sealing resin.
太陽電池モジュールの裏面には保護膜が設けられ、この保護膜には、優れた機械的性質、耐熱性、耐湿性を有するポリエステルフィルムが用いられている。例えば、特開2002−26354号公報や特開2003−60218号公報には、ポリエチレンテレフタレートフィルムを用いた太陽電池裏面保護膜が提案されている。 A protective film is provided on the back surface of the solar cell module, and a polyester film having excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance, and moisture resistance is used for the protective film. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 2002-26354 and 2003-60218 propose a solar cell back surface protective film using a polyethylene terephthalate film.
太陽電池裏面保護膜には、太陽光の表面反射を増大させ、太陽電池の発電効率を高める目的で、白色に着色したものを用いることがある。また、意匠性を重視する建築分野への適用では、建造物のデザインに合わせ、白色だけではなく、黒色、青色などの着色が行われることもある。このように着色した保護膜を作成するには、保護膜を構成する樹脂フィルムに着色剤を添加する方法が知られている。特開2002−134771号公報には、ポリエステルフィルムに、酸化チタンなどの白色顔料を練り込む白色とする方法が記載されている。 As the solar cell back surface protective film, a white colored one may be used for the purpose of increasing the surface reflection of sunlight and increasing the power generation efficiency of the solar cell. In addition, in application to the architectural field where designability is important, not only white but also black or blue may be colored in accordance with the design of the building. In order to create the protective film colored in this way, a method of adding a colorant to the resin film constituting the protective film is known. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-134771 describes a method of whitening a white pigment such as titanium oxide into a polyester film.
しかしながら、着色剤を添加したポリエステルフィルムを太陽電池裏面保護膜として用いる場合、構成によっては部分放電の開始電圧が低く、十分な絶縁特性が得られない場合があり、特に大型の太陽光発電システムを構築する場合には、部分放電の問題が無視できない。 However, when using a polyester film added with a colorant as a solar cell back surface protective film, the partial discharge start voltage may be low depending on the configuration, and sufficient insulation characteristics may not be obtained. When building, the problem of partial discharge cannot be ignored.
本発明は、優れた機械的性質、耐熱性、耐湿性を備え、着色剤を含有して高い意匠性を備えながら、大型の太陽光発電システムを構築し得る優れた絶縁性を備える太陽電池裏面保護膜用ポリエステルフィルムを提供することを課題とする。 The present invention provides a back surface of a solar cell having excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance, moisture resistance, and having excellent insulating properties capable of constructing a large-scale photovoltaic power generation system while having a high design property by containing a colorant. It is an object to provide a polyester film for a protective film.
すなわち本発明は、着色剤を5〜20重量%含有するポリエステル組成物からなり、該着色剤の表面が親和性処理剤で処理されており、フィルムの密度が1.45〜1.60であることを特徴とする、太陽電池裏面保護膜用ポリエステルフィルムである。 That is, the present invention comprises a polyester composition containing 5 to 20 % by weight of a colorant, the surface of the colorant is treated with an affinity treatment agent, and the density of the film is 1. 45-1. 60 , a polyester film for a solar cell back surface protective film.

A polyester film for a battery back surface protective film can be provided.
以下、本発明を詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
[ポリエステルフィルム]
本発明の太陽電池裏面保護膜用ポリエステルフィルムは、着色剤を含有するポリエステル組成物からなる。
ポリエステル組成物のポリエステルとしては、公知の芳香族ポリエステルを用いることができる。例えばテレフタル酸、イソフタル酸、2,6―ナフタレンジカルボン酸、4,4′―ジフェニルジカルボン酸等の芳香族ジカルボン酸成分と、例えばエチレングリコール、1,4―ブタンジオール、1,4―シクロヘキサンジメタノール、1,6―ヘキサンジオール等のグリコール成分とから構成される芳香族ポリエステルを用いることが好ましい。なかでも、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリエチレン―2,6―ナフタレンジカルボキシレートが特に好ましい。ポリエステルは共重合ポリエステルであっても良い。
[Polyester film]
The polyester film for solar cell back surface protective film of this invention consists of a polyester composition containing a coloring agent.
As the polyester of the polyester composition, a known aromatic polyester can be used. Aromatic dicarboxylic acid components such as terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 4,4'-diphenyldicarboxylic acid, and ethylene glycol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol It is preferable to use an aromatic polyester composed of a glycol component such as 1,6-hexanediol. Of these, polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene-2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate are particularly preferred. The polyester may be a copolyester.
ポリエステル組成物は着色剤を含有する。着色剤の含有量は、ポリエステル組成物100重量%あたり0.5〜50重量%、好ましくは3〜30重量%、さらに好ましくは5〜20重量%である。着色剤の含有量が0.5%未満であると白色の場合は太陽光反射率が低く発電効率向上効果が小さく、また着色も十分でなく意匠性を付与する効果も小さいものとなる。他方、50重量%を越えるとフィルムが脆くなり、実用的な機械的強度が得られない。 The polyester composition contains a colorant. Content of a coloring agent is 0.5 to 50 weight% per 100 weight% of polyester compositions, Preferably it is 3 to 30 weight%, More preferably, it is 5 to 20 weight%. When the content of the colorant is less than 0.5%, in the case of white, the solar reflectance is low, and the effect of improving the power generation efficiency is small. On the other hand, if it exceeds 50% by weight, the film becomes brittle and practical mechanical strength cannot be obtained.
白色の着色剤としては、白色の無機顔料を用いることが好ましく、二酸化チタン、酸化亜鉛、硫化亜鉛、硫酸バリウムなどの無機白色顔料を例示することができ、好ましくは二酸化チタンを用いる。白色以外の着色剤としては、無機有彩色顔料を用いることができ、例えば、黒色酸化鉄、カーボンブラックなどの黒色顔料、アゾ系、アントラキノン系、フタロシアニン系、チオインジゴ系、キナクリドン系、ジオキサジン等の有機染料・顔料、紺青、クロムバーミリオン、ベンガラなどを用いることができる。 As the white colorant, a white inorganic pigment is preferably used, and inorganic white pigments such as titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, zinc sulfide, and barium sulfate can be exemplified, and titanium dioxide is preferably used. As the colorant other than white, inorganic chromatic pigments can be used, for example, black pigments such as black iron oxide and carbon black, organic compounds such as azo, anthraquinone, phthalocyanine, thioindigo, quinacridone, and dioxazine. Dyes / pigments, bitumen, chrome vermilion, bengara and the like can be used.
本発明のポリエステルフィルムの密度は、1.38〜1.80、好ましくは1.40〜1.70以下、さらに好ましくは1.45〜1.60である。密度が1.38未満であると部分放電が発生する電圧が低下し、絶縁特性が低下する。他方、密度が1.80を超えるとフィルムが脆くなり、実用的な機械強度が得られなくなる。この密度を達成するためにポリエステル組成物に配合する着色剤は、密度の高いものが好ましく、好ましくは3.0g/cm3以上、さらに好ましくは4.0 g/cm3以上のものを用いる。 The density of the polyester film of the present invention is 1.38 to 1.80, preferably 1.40 to 1.70 or less, more preferably 1.45 to 1.60. When the density is less than 1.38, the voltage at which partial discharge occurs is lowered, and the insulation characteristics are lowered. On the other hand, if the density exceeds 1.80, the film becomes brittle and practical mechanical strength cannot be obtained. In order to achieve this density, the colorant blended in the polyester composition is preferably one having a high density, preferably 3.0 g / cm 3 or more, more preferably 4.0 g / cm 3 or more.
着色剤としては、典型的には白色の着色剤を用いるが、着色の目的によっては白色以外の着色剤を用いていてもよい。
なお、密度の高い着色剤を添加しても、フィルムの製造時にボイドと呼ばれる空隙が発生し、フィルム密度が低下する場合がある。本発明においては、下記式で表わされるフィルムのボイド率は、好ましくは0〜5%、さらに好ましくは0〜3%である。ボイド率が5%を超えると部分放電が発生する電圧が低下し絶縁特性が低下するため好ましくない。
ボイド率(%)=((真密度−実密度)/真密度)×100
As the colorant, a white colorant is typically used, but a colorant other than white may be used depending on the purpose of coloring.
Even when a high-density colorant is added, voids called voids are generated during the production of the film, and the film density may decrease. In the present invention, the void ratio of the film represented by the following formula is preferably 0 to 5%, more preferably 0 to 3%. If the void ratio exceeds 5%, the voltage at which partial discharge occurs is lowered and the insulation characteristics are lowered, which is not preferable.
Void ratio (%) = ((true density−actual density) / true density) × 100
このような密度が高くボイド率の低いポリエステルフィルムを得るためには、ポリエステルと親和性の高い着色剤を用いればよい。特に着色剤の表面をポリエステルと親和性の高い表面処理剤、すなわち親和性処理剤で処理した着色剤を用いることが好ましい。 In order to obtain such a polyester film having a high density and a low void ratio, a colorant having a high affinity for polyester may be used. In particular, it is preferable to use a surface treatment agent having a high affinity for polyester on the surface of the colorant, that is, a colorant treated with an affinity treatment agent.
このために用いる着色剤の表面処理剤としては、例えばアルミニウム、ケイ素、チタニウム、ジルコニウム、錫、セリウム、ビスマスといった金属の酸化物もしくは含水酸化物、例えば有機アルミニウム化合物、有機チタニウム化合物、有機ジルコニウム化合物といった有機金属化合物、例えばシランカップリング剤、ポリシロキサンといった有機ケイ素化合物、例えばリン酸アルミニウム、有機リン酸エステルといったリン化合物を挙げることができる。中でもアルミニウム、ケイ素、ジルコニウムの酸化物もしくは含水酸化物、または有機ケイ素化合物が好ましい。 Examples of the surface treatment agent for the colorant used for this purpose include oxides or hydrated oxides of metals such as aluminum, silicon, titanium, zirconium, tin, cerium, and bismuth, such as organic aluminum compounds, organic titanium compounds, and organic zirconium compounds. Examples of the organic metal compound include organic silicon compounds such as silane coupling agents and polysiloxanes, and phosphorus compounds such as aluminum phosphate and organic phosphate esters. Of these, aluminum, silicon, zirconium oxides or hydrous oxides, or organosilicon compounds are preferred.
