PV Dow: PV assembly and repair materials.
As the global photovoltaic (PV) market continues to grow, the demand for durable, reliable and high-performance PV modules is expanding as a result. The Dow PV products we supply offer a wide range from the chemical and technology perspectives. Dow’s new PV products are tested to meet specific solar industry requirements to create more reliable solar modules.
Based on more than 50 years of experience, Dow works with leading solar companies to improve the durability, longevity and performance of photovoltaic systems.
Dow understands that materials are the key players driving innovation, so it is helping solve challenges in module manufacturing by leveraging its silicone, polyolefin, and polyurethane products. New technologies allow PV module manufacturers to explore new and more efficient designs.
Plans for tomorrow’s renewable energy needs
Thanks to Dow, we can offer encapsulants and potting for a wide variety of applications:
- For electronic components
- For bonding tracks
- For sealing electronic components
- For bonding rails
- For sealing of frames
- For adhesive junction boxes
- For protective and repair coatings
- materials for optics
Our goal is to work together with Dow to achieve the global energy transition.
Maximizing the reliability of conversion
To achieve optimal efficiency and efficient conversion of stored or still usable energy, a solar power system requires reliable, high-performance components. Dow’s advanced PV silicone materials are critical to industries because they offer excellent aging resistance in a wide range of harsh environments to which external devices may be exposed during their lifetime.
Dow provides advanced adhesives, protective encapsulants, and thermal management options that protect electronic devices from environmental impact, remove heat to increase efficiency, and offer long life to solar power systems. These products protect electronic components from wear and tear and the effects of the surrounding environment, providing long life and reliable performance to solar power systems.
Solar energy inverters are used to convert solar energy into useful form to be returned to the grid, stored in a battery, or used by the user. Power optimizers and microinverters are devices that increase efficiency, reduce power losses due to module misalignment, and allow greater flexibility in solar installations.
These new PV Dow products, which Mascherpa provides, ensure that conversion systems are protected from their surroundings and that they operate reliably and efficiently throughout their useful life.
