Description

積層体およびその製造方法Laminated body and method for producing the same
　本発明は、太陽電池モジュール用保護シートとして有用な積層体およびその製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a laminate useful as a protective sheet for a solar cell module and a method for producing the same.
　近年、地球環境保護の観点から、より安全性の高いクリーンなエネルギーが望まれている。将来期待されているクリーンなエネルギーの中でも特に太陽電池は、そのクリーンさ、安全性および取り扱いやすさから期待が高まっている。
　太陽電池の太陽光を電気エネルギーに変換する心臓部はセルであり、該セルとしては、単結晶、多結晶またはアモルファスシリコン系の半導体から構成されているものが汎用されている。該セルは通常、複数個が直列または並列に配線され、さらに、長期間に渡ってその機能を維持するために各種材料で保護され、太陽電池モジュールとして用いられている。 In recent years, clean energy with higher safety is desired from the viewpoint of protecting the global environment. Among the clean energy expected in the future, solar cells are particularly expected due to their cleanliness, safety and ease of handling.
The heart of solar cells that converts sunlight into electrical energy is a cell, and a cell made of a single crystal, polycrystalline, or amorphous silicon semiconductor is widely used. In general, a plurality of the cells are wired in series or in parallel, and are further protected by various materials in order to maintain their functions over a long period of time, and are used as solar cell modules.
　太陽電池モジュールは、一般的に、セルの太陽光が当たる側の面を強化ガラスで覆い、裏面をバックシートで封止し、セルと強化ガラスとの間の隙間、セルとバックシートとの間の隙間にそれぞれ熱可塑性樹脂（特にエチレン－酢酸ビニル重合体（以下ＥＶＡと称す。））からなる充填剤を充填した構造となっている。
　太陽電池モジュールには２０～３０年程度の製品品質保証が要求されている。太陽電池モジュールは主に屋外で使用されることから、その構成材料には耐候性が求められる。強化ガラス、およびバックシートは、モジュール内部の水分による劣化を防ぐ役割を担っており、防湿性も求められる。
　強化ガラスは、防湿性だけでなく、透明性、耐候性にも優れるものの、可塑性、耐衝撃性、取り扱い性等が低い。そのため、強化ガラスに代えて、樹脂シート、特に耐候性に優れたフッ素樹脂シートの適用が検討されるようになってきた。しかし樹脂シートは、強化ガラスに比べて防湿性が低い問題がある。 Generally, a solar cell module covers a surface of a cell that is exposed to sunlight with tempered glass, and the back surface is sealed with a back sheet, and a gap between the cell and the tempered glass, between the cell and the back sheet. Each gap is filled with a filler made of a thermoplastic resin (particularly, ethylene-vinyl acetate polymer (hereinafter referred to as EVA)).
Solar cell modules are required to guarantee product quality for about 20 to 30 years. Since the solar cell module is mainly used outdoors, its constituent materials are required to have weather resistance. The tempered glass and the back sheet play a role of preventing deterioration due to moisture inside the module, and are also required to have moisture resistance.
Although tempered glass is excellent not only in moisture resistance but also in transparency and weather resistance, it has low plasticity, impact resistance, handleability and the like. Therefore, in place of tempered glass, application of a resin sheet, particularly a fluororesin sheet excellent in weather resistance has been studied. However, the resin sheet has a problem that its moisture resistance is lower than that of tempered glass.
　上記問題に対し、樹脂シートに、防湿層として無機酸化物の蒸着薄膜を設けることが提案されている。たとえば特許文献１では、フッ素樹脂シートと、無機酸化物の蒸着薄膜を有する樹脂シートとを積層した保護シートが提案されている。また、特許文献２では、フッ素樹脂シートの片面に無機酸化物の蒸着薄膜を設け、さらに、耐候性向上のために、防汚層および／または紫外線吸収剤層を設けた保護シートが提案されている。
　しかし、前記防湿層は樹脂シートに対する密着性が悪く、該防湿層と接するように充填剤層を設けて太陽電池モジュールを構成した際に、防湿層が樹脂シートから剥離する問題がある。該剥離により樹脂シートと充填剤層との間に隙間が生じると、水分が入り込む等により、太陽電池モジュールの耐久性が低下してしまう。 In response to the above problem, it has been proposed to provide an inorganic oxide vapor-deposited thin film as a moisture-proof layer on a resin sheet. For example, Patent Document 1 proposes a protective sheet in which a fluororesin sheet and a resin sheet having a vapor-deposited thin film of an inorganic oxide are laminated. Patent Document 2 proposes a protective sheet provided with an inorganic oxide vapor-deposited thin film on one side of a fluororesin sheet and further provided with an antifouling layer and / or an ultraviolet absorber layer for improving weather resistance. Yes.
However, the moisture-proof layer has poor adhesion to the resin sheet, and there is a problem that the moisture-proof layer peels from the resin sheet when a solar cell module is formed by providing a filler layer so as to be in contact with the moisture-proof layer. If a gap is generated between the resin sheet and the filler layer due to the peeling, the durability of the solar cell module is lowered due to moisture entering.
　上記問題に対し、樹脂シートと無機酸化物の蒸着薄膜との間に、密着性を向上させるための層（密着層）を設けることが提案されている。たとえば特許文献３では、フッ素系樹脂基材層と無機酸化物の蒸着薄膜層との間に、アクリルポリオールおよび／またはポリエステルポリオールおよびイソシアネート化合物の複合体の混合物を含むアンカーコート層を設けることが提案されている。また、特許文献４では、基材と無機酸化物からなる蒸着層との間に、オキサゾリン基を含有する樹脂と、ポリ（メタ）アクリル酸および／またはポリ（メタ）アクリル酸とコモノマーの共重合体からなるアクリル系樹脂とを所定の比率で反応させて得られる、アミドエステル部位を有する樹脂からなる蒸着用プライマー層を設けることが提案されている。 In response to the above problem, it has been proposed to provide a layer (adhesion layer) for improving adhesion between the resin sheet and the inorganic oxide vapor-deposited thin film. For example, Patent Document 3 proposes to provide an anchor coat layer containing a mixture of a complex of acrylic polyol and / or polyester polyol and an isocyanate compound between the fluororesin substrate layer and the inorganic oxide vapor-deposited thin film layer. Has been. In Patent Document 4, a resin containing an oxazoline group and poly (meth) acrylic acid and / or poly (meth) acrylic acid and a comonomer are mixed between a base material and a vapor deposition layer made of an inorganic oxide. It has been proposed to provide a deposition primer layer made of a resin having an amide ester site, which is obtained by reacting a combined acrylic resin with a predetermined ratio.

　しかし、前記密着層を設けても、フッ素樹脂シートと前記防湿膜との間の密着性の長期安定性が低い問題がある。
　本発明は、上記事情に鑑みなされたものであり、耐候性、防湿性に優れ、層間の密着性およびその長期安定性にも優れた積層体およびその製造方法を提供する。 However, even if the adhesion layer is provided, there is a problem that the long-term stability of the adhesion between the fluororesin sheet and the moisture-proof film is low.
This invention is made | formed in view of the said situation, and provides the laminated body excellent in the weather resistance and moisture-proof property, the adhesiveness between layers, and its long-term stability, and its manufacturing method.

Examples of the dry method include physical vapor deposition (PVD method) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD method).
Examples of the PVD method include a vacuum deposition method, a sputtering method, and an ion plating method, and any method may be used. Among these, the sputtering method is particularly preferable because it is excellent in productivity and widely used industrially, and a very dense film with high adhesion to the substrate sheet can be obtained with a uniform film thickness. . As the sputtering method, any of a direct current sputtering method, a high frequency sputtering method, and an alternating current sputtering method can be used.

Examples of the CVD method include plasma CVD method, thermal CVD, catalytic CVD, and the like, and any method may be used. Among these, the plasma CVD method is preferable because it is excellent in productivity, is widely used industrially, and a very dense film with high adhesion to the substrate sheet can be obtained with a uniform film thickness. .
　密着層の具体的な形成条件は使用する方法および材料に応じて適宜設定できる。
　たとえばクロム膜は、クロムターゲットを用い、アルゴン等の不活性ガス雰囲気中でのスパッタリング法により成膜して得られる。
　このときの具体的なスパッタリング条件は、装置の種類、ターゲット組成等の諸条件によって変動するので適宜選択すればよい。一般的には８×１０－４Ｐａまで真空排気後、アルゴンを容器内に導入し、スパッタリングガス圧０．１～１．３Ｐａ、電力密度０．５～５Ｗ／ｃｍ２で行うのが好ましい。
　クロム合金膜は、クロムターゲットの代わりに、クロム合金ターゲットを用いる以外は上記と同様にして成膜できる。 The specific formation conditions of the adhesion layer can be appropriately set according to the method and material used.
For example, the chromium film is obtained by forming a film by a sputtering method in an inert gas atmosphere such as argon using a chromium target.

The moisture-proof layer has as a main component at least one inorganic compound selected from the group consisting of inorganic oxides, inorganic nitrides, and inorganic oxynitrides.
Here, “main component” means that the proportion of the inorganic compound in the moisture-proof layer is 95% by volume or more. The proportion of the inorganic compound in the moisture-proof layer is preferably 100% by volume. That is, the moisture-proof layer is preferably composed of the inorganic compound or contains the inorganic compound.
Examples of the inorganic oxide include metal oxides. Examples of the metal in the metal oxide include aluminum, silicon, and magnesium. As the oxide, silicon oxide (SiO x , 0 <x ≦ 2) and aluminum oxide (AlO x , 0 <x ≦ 1.5) are particularly preferable.

　防湿層は、乾式法により形成してもよく、湿式法により形成してもよいが、乾式法が好ましい。乾式法により形成される膜（蒸着膜）は、湿式法により形成される膜に比べて膜厚が均一で、前記密着層に対する密着性も高い。
　乾式法としては、物理蒸着法（ＰＶＤ法）、化学蒸着法（ＣＶＤ法）等が挙げられる。
　ＰＶＤ法としては、たとえば、真空蒸着法、スパッタリング法、イオンプレーティング法等が挙げられ、いずれの方法を用いてもよい。これらの中でも、特にスパッタリング法は、生産性に優れ、工業的に幅広く使われているとともに、非常に緻密で、前記密着層との密着性が高い膜が均一な膜厚で得られるため好ましい。スパッタリング法としては、直流スパッタリング法、高周波スパッタリング法、交流スパッタリング法のいずれでも使用できる。大面積の基体に、大きな成膜速度で、効率よく成膜できる等の生産性に優れる点で、直流スパッタリング法または交流スパッタリング法が好ましい。

A film (deposited film) formed by a dry method has a uniform film thickness and higher adhesion to the adhesion layer than a film formed by a wet method.
Examples of the dry method include physical vapor deposition (PVD method) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD method).
Examples of the PVD method include a vacuum deposition method, a sputtering method, and an ion plating method, and any method may be used. Among these, the sputtering method is particularly preferable because it is excellent in productivity, is widely used industrially, and a very dense film having high adhesion with the adhesion layer can be obtained with a uniform film thickness. As the sputtering method, any of a direct current sputtering method, a high frequency sputtering method, and an alternating current sputtering method can be used. The direct current sputtering method or the alternating current sputtering method is preferable from the viewpoint of excellent productivity such as efficient film formation on a large-area substrate at a high film formation rate.
Examples of the CVD method include a plasma CVD method, a thermal CVD method, and a catalytic CVD method, and any method may be used. Among these, the plasma CVD method is preferable because it is excellent in productivity, is widely used industrially, and a very dense film with high adhesion to the substrate sheet can be obtained with a uniform film thickness. .
　防湿層の具体的な形成条件は使用する方法および材料に応じて適宜設定できる。
　たとえば酸化アルミニウム膜は、アルミニウムターゲットを用い、酸素含有雰囲気中でのスパッタリング法により成膜して得られる。この際、間欠的な負の直流電圧をターゲットに印加する方法により、成膜時のアーキング（arcing）発生を効果的に抑制し、投入電力を増大させ、さらに大きな成膜速度を長時間維持することが可能である。このときの具体的なスパッタリング条件は、装置の種類、ターゲット組成等の諸条件によって変動するので適宜選択すればよい。一般的には８×１０－４Ｐａまで真空排気後、アルゴンと酸素を０：１００～９０：１０の流量比で容器内に導入し、スパッタリングガス圧０．１～１．３Ｐａ、電力密度０．５～５Ｗ／ｃｍ２で行うのが好ましい。 Specific conditions for forming the moisture-proof layer can be appropriately set according to the method and material used.
For example, an aluminum oxide film can be obtained by forming an aluminum target by a sputtering method in an oxygen-containing atmosphere. At this time, by applying an intermittent negative DC voltage to the target, the occurrence of arcing during film formation is effectively suppressed, the input power is increased, and a larger film formation rate is maintained for a long time. It is possible. The specific sputtering conditions at this time may be appropriately selected because they vary depending on various conditions such as the type of apparatus and the target composition. Generally, after evacuating to 8 × 10 −4 Pa, argon and oxygen are introduced into the container at a flow rate ratio of 0: 100 to 90:10, the sputtering gas pressure is 0.1 to 1.3 Pa, and the power density is 0. It is preferably performed at 5 to 5 W / cm 2 .
　防湿層は、単一の層からなるものであってもよく、材質が異なる複数の層からなるものであってもよい。後者の場合、たとえば、主成分とする無機化合物が異なる複数の層からなるものが挙げられる。
　防湿層の膜厚（複数の層よりなる場合は合計の膜厚）は、防湿性の観点から、１０ｎｍ以上が好ましい。また、基材シートの可撓性の維持および基材シートとの密着性の確保の観点から、１００ｎｍ以下が好ましく、５０ｎｍ以下がより好ましい。 The moisture-proof layer may be composed of a single layer or may be composed of a plurality of layers made of different materials. In the latter case, for example, those composed of a plurality of layers having different inorganic compounds as main components can be mentioned.
The film thickness of the moisture-proof layer (total film thickness in the case of a plurality of layers) is preferably 10 nm or more from the viewpoint of moisture-proof property. Moreover, 100 nm or less is preferable and 50 nm or less is more preferable from a viewpoint of ensuring the flexibility of a base material sheet, and ensuring adhesiveness with a base material sheet.
　本発明の積層体は、上記構成を有することにより、耐候性、防湿性に優れ、各層間の密着性およびその長期安定性にも優れる。すなわち、密着層が特定の金属酸化物を主成分として含有することにより、密着層と防湿層との間、および密着層と基材シートとの間の密着性が高い。そのため積層体全体としての密着性およびその長期安定性が高い。
　そのため、本発明の積層体は、太陽電池モジュール用保護シートとして有用である。
　たとえば積層体全体としての密着性およびその長期安定性が高いため、該積層体を、防湿層側の面がＥＶＡ等の充填剤層側になるよう配置した太陽電池モジュールは、基材シートと充填剤層との間の密着強度の低下が生じにくい。
　また、含フッ素樹脂を含有する基材シートは、耐候性、耐熱性、および耐薬品性に優れるほか、防汚性にも優れる。そのため、該積層体を、太陽電池モジュールの最外層が該基材シートとなるように配置した際に、該太陽電池モジュール表面にほこりやゴミが付着しにくいため、長期にわたって汚れによる性能の低下を防止できる。 Since the laminate of the present invention has the above-described configuration, it is excellent in weather resistance and moisture resistance, and is excellent in adhesion between layers and its long-term stability. That is, when the adhesion layer contains a specific metal oxide as a main component, adhesion between the adhesion layer and the moisture-proof layer and between the adhesion layer and the base sheet is high. Therefore, the adhesiveness as a whole laminate and its long-term stability are high.
Therefore, the laminated body of this invention is useful as a protective sheet for solar cell modules.
For example, the solar cell module in which the laminate is disposed so that the surface of the moisture-proof layer is on the side of the filler layer such as EVA because of the high adhesion and long-term stability of the laminate as a whole. Decrease in adhesion strength with the agent layer is unlikely to occur.
Moreover, the base material sheet containing a fluorine-containing resin is excellent in weather resistance, heat resistance, and chemical resistance, as well as antifouling properties. Therefore, when the laminated body is arranged so that the outermost layer of the solar cell module is the base sheet, dust and dust hardly adhere to the surface of the solar cell module. Can be prevented.
