Definitions
- the present invention is a cover film that is used as a solar cell protective member and is effective for reducing the weight, durability, and output of a solar cell, and a lightweight, highly durable solar cell manufactured using the cover film. Regarding modules.
- the solar cell constitutes the central part of a photovoltaic power generation system that directly converts sunlight energy into electricity.
- a plurality of solar cell elements are wired in series and in parallel as the structure, and various packaging is performed to protect the cells, thereby forming a unit.
- a unit incorporated in this package is called a solar cell module, and generally a configuration in which a solar cell element is protected by a surface protective material, that is, a transparent substrate (glass / translucent glass) with a surface exposed to sunlight as a front surface protective material.
- a conductive solar cell sheet front sheet
- a back surface sealing sheet back sheet
- a thermoplastic eg, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer
- the structure is filled with a stopper (sealing resin layer).
- the sealing material has flexibility and impact resistance for protecting the solar cell element, heat resistance when the solar cell module generates heat, and transparency for efficiently reaching the solar cell element. (Total light transmittance, etc.), durability, dimensional stability, flame retardancy, water vapor barrier properties, etc. are mainly required.
- the required properties required for the surface protection material of solar cells are excellent in durability against ultraviolet rays. It is an important requirement to have excellent moisture resistance. For this reason, glass is widely used as a conventional surface protective material as described above. However, while the glass plate is excellent in weather resistance and moisture resistance, it has a drawback that it is heavy, weak against impacts and easily broken.
- Patent Document 1 discloses a solar cell module having a film made of an acrylic resin or a fluoride polymer as a transparent surface protective film located on the outermost surface.
- fluoride polymers are rich in weather resistance and water repellency, and can reduce the decrease in conversion efficiency of solar cell modules due to yellowing / white turbidity due to resin deterioration or a decrease in light transmittance due to surface contamination. it can.
- EVA ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers
- Patent Document 2 ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers
- crosslinking using an organic peroxide as a crosslinking agent is performed mainly for the purpose of imparting heat resistance to EVA. Therefore, a process of preparing an EVA sheet mixed with a crosslinking agent (organic peroxide) and a crosslinking aid in advance and sealing the solar cell element using the obtained sheet is employed. In the production stage of the sheet, it is necessary to form at a low temperature (usually about 80 to 100 ° C.) at which the organic peroxide is not decomposed.
- a sealing material for a solar cell element using an EVA sheet is likely to corrode solar cells due to acetic acid generated by hydrolysis of EVA or the like during long-term use. Due to the agent or generated acetic acid, there has been a problem that peeling may occur at the interface with the solar cell element, the front protective material, or the back protective material.
- Patent Document 3 discloses an amorphous ⁇ -olefin polymer and a crystalline ⁇ -olefin polymer as solar cell encapsulants that do not use an EVA sheet and can omit the crosslinking step.
- the solar cell sealing material which consists of a resin composition to contain is disclosed, Specifically, the resin composition which consists of a polymer which has a propylene as a main component is used.
- Patent Document 4 discloses a solar cell sealing material characterized in that it is a polymer blend or polymer alloy comprising at least one polyolefin copolymer and at least one crystalline polyolefin.
- a polymer blend of EVA having a low melting point and EVA having a high melting point see Example 1
- a polymer blend of an ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer and a general-purpose crystalline polyethylene see Example 2

Abstract
Description
これらの太陽電池モジュールは主に屋外で使用されるため、その構成や材質構造等に種々の特性が必要とされる。このうち、封止材には、太陽電池素子を保護する為の柔軟性や耐衝撃性、太陽電池モジュールが発熱した際の耐熱性、太陽電池素子へ太陽光が効率的に届く為の透明性(全光線透過率など)、耐久性、寸法安定性、難燃性、水蒸気バリア性等が主に要求される。
太陽電池の表面保護材に求められる要求特性としては、紫外線に対する耐久性に優れることが第一であり、加えて、湿気ないし水の透過による内部の導線や電極の発錆を防止するために、防湿性に優れることが重要な要件となる。このため、従来の表面保護材としては前述のようにガラスが広く用いられている。
しかし、ガラス板は耐候性や防湿性に優れる反面、重量が重く、また衝撃に弱く割れ易いという欠点がある。
また、EVAシートを用いる太陽電池素子の封止材は、長期間における使用に際して、EVAの加水分解等により発生する酢酸による太陽電池の回路腐食やその懸念があり、さらには、架橋剤や架橋助剤、あるいは発生した酢酸などが原因となり、太陽電池素子との界面や前面保護材との界面、または、裏面保護材との界面で剥離が発生することがある等の問題があった。
また、特許文献4には、少なくとも一種のポリオレフィン系共重合体と、少なくとも一種の結晶性ポリオレフィンからなるポリマーブレンドまたはポリマーアロイであることを特徴とする太陽電池封止材が開示されており、具体的には、低融点のEVAと高融点のEVAとのポリマーブレンド(実施例1参照)、エチレン-メタクリル酸共重合体と汎用の結晶性ポリエチレンとのポリマーブレンド(実施例2参照)、エチレン-アクリル酸メチル共重合体と汎用の結晶性ポリプロピレンとのポリマーブレンド(実施例3参照)が用いられている。
さらに、前面保護材、封止材、太陽電池素子、裏面保護材等を別々に積層して太陽電池モジュールを製造する工程においては、積層時の部材が多様になり、これらを所定の位置に重ねて積層するという作業が煩雑で工程数も多く、生産性に劣りコスト面でも高価となるという問題があった。
そこで特許文献5には、架橋剤を必須とし、さらにその他の添加剤を含有する充填材層と、前面カバーフィルム、具体的には耐候層とバリア層を有する多層積層フィルムとを積層してなる太陽電池のカバーフィルムが開示されている。
このように、従来の太陽電池用裏面保護材と封止材の組み合わせに関する技術において、裏面保護材表層からの光反射率が低下することによる太陽電池性能低下を防止する有用な解決手段は提案されてなかった。
また、本発明の課題は、封止樹脂層と表面保護層との組合わせにおいて、柔軟性と耐熱性および全光線透過率のいずれも十分優れ、これらの良好なバランスが図られたフィルム層を有することによって、特に、裏面保護層表層面での高光反射性を確保することによって、太陽電池モジュールの長期の耐候性と高発電効率を実現することにある。
さらに、本発明の課題は、この太陽電池用封止樹脂層と裏面保護層との組み合わせにより、高効率の太陽電池モジュールを提供することにある。
(a)示差走査熱量測定における加熱速度10℃/分で測定される結晶融解熱量が0~70J/g
(b)示差走査熱量測定における加熱速度10℃/分で測定される結晶融解ピーク温度が100℃以上であり、かつ結晶融解熱量が5~70J/g
また、本発明によれば、太陽電池用封止層と表面保護層を有する積層体において、該両層を特定の構成とすることによって、該フィルム層の柔軟性と耐熱性および全光線透過率とのバランスを図ることができ、これにより、裏面保護材表層面での高反射性を確保し長期の耐候性と高発電効率を実現し、太陽電池の軽量化、耐久性の向上に有効な太陽電池保護用積層体を提供することができる。
本発明における耐候層は特に限定されるものではなく、太陽電池モジュールに通常具備される耐候性等の特性を有するものであればよいが、本発明においては、可撓性、耐候性、防湿性、透明性、耐熱性、及び後述する封止樹脂層との接着性に優れた層であることが好ましく、単独で、後述する封止樹脂層と積層して用いることも好ましい態様であるが、また、後述の表面保護層を構成するものとして使用することもできる。
この観点から、耐候層は、アクリル樹脂、ポリカーボネート樹脂、ポリエチレンテレフタレート樹脂、及びポリエチレンナフタレート樹脂から選ばれる少なくとも1種の樹脂と紫外線吸収剤とを含有する樹脂組成物、もしくはフッ素樹脂、を主成分とする層であることが好ましい。これらのうち、特に、耐候性に優れる理由からフッ素樹脂を主成分とする層であることがより好ましい。
このうち、ETFE、FEPが耐候性、防湿性、透明性に優れる上、防汚性、難燃性も具備することから特に好ましく用いられる。ここで用いられるETFEは、特に耐熱性の観点から融点が150~270℃のものであることが望ましい。
紫外線吸収剤は、前記耐候層を構成する樹脂100質量部に対して通常0.05~10質量部添加することが好ましい。
本発明における表面保護層は、太陽電池用熱可塑性樹脂シートまたは太陽電池用熱可塑性樹脂シート積層品であって、汚れや水蒸気などから太陽電池モジュールを保護するため使用される。
表面保護層は、ポリオレフィン系樹脂層を有することが好ましく、また、水蒸気の進入を防ぐこと、紫外線劣化を防止することから、それぞれの要求に応えるべく、ポリオレフィン系樹脂層、防湿層、耐候層などのフィルム層を接着剤を介して積層することがより好ましい。特に、表面保護層が裏面保護層である場合、裏面保護層まで到達した光を素子に戻し発電効率を向上させるため、ポリオレフィン系樹脂層として、光線反射率が80%以上の白色樹脂層を用いることが好ましい。
ポリオレフィン系樹脂層としては、特に制限はないが、その主成分として、例えば、安価である点からポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリカーボネート、ポリメチルメタクリレート、ポリアクリレート、ポリエチレンナフタレート、アクリル、ポリプロピレン、ポリエチレン等ポリオレフィンなどの樹脂が利用できるが、可撓性に富み、加湿耐久性の点から、アイソタクチックポリプロピレン樹脂を主成分とする無延伸ポリプロピレンフィルム層が好ましい。裏面保護層として用いる場合は、裏面保護層まで入射してきた光を反射させて太陽電池素子に戻し、電力変換効率を向上させることができるものであり、裏面保護層の最表面に積層されることが好ましい。ポリオレフィン系樹脂層は樹脂に白色顔料を練り混んだ白色樹脂層を使用することが好ましい。
白色顔料としては、酸化チタンや酸化亜鉛が利用できる。上記樹脂に白色顔料を添加して好ましくは光線反射率が80%以上の白色樹脂層とする。ポリオレフィン系樹脂層の厚さは、40~200μm程度とするのが好ましく、耐部分放電圧特性を確保する観点から80~180μmがより好ましい。
前記ポリオレフィン系樹脂層の光線反射率は、後述する光線反射率測定方法で80%以上であることが好ましく、85%以上であることがより好ましい。
本発明における防湿層は、湿気、水の透過による内部の導線、電極の発錆等を防止するために用いられ、防湿性に優れ、好ましくは高透明のフィルムであれば特に制限はないが、基材フィルムの少なくとも一方の面に無機酸化物のコーティング膜を少なくとも1層有する透明防湿層が好ましく用いられる。

(b)示差走査熱量測定における加熱速度10℃/分で測定される結晶融解ピーク温度が100℃以上であり、かつ結晶融解熱量が5~70J/g
本発明に用いられるエチレン-α-オレフィンランダム共重合体(A)は、上記の条件(a)を満足すれば特に限定されるものではないが、通常、エチレンと炭素数3~20のα-オレフィンとのランダム共重合体が好適に用いられる。ここでエチレンと共重合するα-オレフィンとしては、プロピレン、1-ブテン、1-ペンテン、1-へキセン、1-へプテン、1-オクテン、1-ノネン、1-デセン、3-メチル-ブテン-1、4-メチル-ペンテン-1等が例示される。本発明においては、工業的な入手し易さや諸特性、経済性などの観点からエチレンと共重合するα-オレフィンとしては、プロピレン、1-ブテン、1-へキセン、1-オクテンが好適に用いられる。エチレンと共重合するα-オレフィンは1種のみを単独でまたは2種以上を組み合わせて用いてもかまわない。

本発明においては、酸化防止剤の効果、熱安定性、経済性等からフェノール系およびホスファイト系の酸化防止剤が好ましく用いられ、両者を組み合わせて用いることがさらに好ましい。該酸化防止剤の添加量は、樹脂組成物(C)100質量部に対し、通常、0.1~1質量部程度であり、0.2~0.5質量部添加することが好ましい。

一般に、太陽電池モジュールは発電時の発熱や太陽光の輻射熱などで85~90℃程度まで昇温するが、結晶融解ピーク温度が100℃以上であれば、封止樹脂層の耐熱性を確保することが出来るため好ましい。そして、本発明の太陽電池用カバーフィルムは封止樹脂層の耐熱性と弾性率が部材を構成する層において最も低いことから、本発明の太陽電池用カバーフィルムの耐熱性については封止樹脂層がその性能を決定する。
本発明においては、厚み3mmの白板ガラス(サイズ;縦75mm、横25mm)と厚み5mmのアルミ板(サイズ;縦120mm、横60mm)の間に、厚みが0.5mmのシート状に成形した封止樹脂層を重ね、真空プレス機を用いて150℃、15分の条件で積層プレスした試料を作製し、該試料を100℃の恒温槽内で60度に傾斜して設置し500時間経過後の状態を観察し、ガラスが初期の基準位置からずれなかったものを○、ガラスが初期の基準位置からずれたり、シートが溶融したものを×として評価した。

ドライラミネーション法は、予めフィルム状に製膜された2枚のフィルム、例えば、耐候層と、封止樹脂層とを、2液硬化型のポリウレタン系接着剤などを用いて、これを一方のフィルム、例えば耐候層の積層面に塗布し、熱風乾燥などにより溶剤成分を除去し、硬化前のタック(粘着性)のある状態で、その上にもう一方のフィルム、即ち、封止樹脂層を重ねて圧着し、通常、ロール状に巻き上げ、常温または比較的低い加熱温度で保存して、経時的に接着剤を硬化させて貼り合わせる方法である。
押出コート法は、予め製膜されたフィルム、例えば、耐候層を基材とし、その積層面に、必要に応じてアンカーコート(プライマーコートの一種)を施し、その上に前記樹脂組成物(C)を、Tダイなどで膜状に溶融押出コートしながら、チルロールで冷却、圧着して積層する方法である。

共押出法は、例えば、耐候層と封止樹脂層とを、フィードブロックもしくはマルチマニホールドダイなどで膜状に積層し、チルロールで冷却、圧着して積層する方法である。場合によっては、2層の間に接着層を介在させても良い。
例えば、耐候層あるいはこれを含む表面保護層/封止樹脂層といった2種2層(以上)の構成や、耐候層あるいはこれを含む表面保護層/接着層/封止樹脂層といった3種3層(以上)の構成、耐候層あるいはこれを含む表面保護層/封止樹脂層/耐候層あるいはこれを含む表面保護層/封止樹脂層といった2種4層(以上)の構成などが好ましく挙げられる。本発明においては、このような構成により、防湿層の劣化を防止し、長期の高い防湿性と耐候性を達成することができる。
耐候層と封止樹脂層を積層する場合、カバーフィルムの総厚みは、特に限定されるものではないが、好ましくは55~1200μmの範囲であり、より好ましくは110~800μmの範囲である。
