Glass Requirements For Solar Panels | DSBsolar
The glass requirements of solar panels are one of the key factors to ensure the performance, durability, and safety of solar cell modules. Here are some common requirements for solar panel glass:
Transparency: The glass of solar panels must have a high degree of transparency to ensure that sunlight can smoothly penetrate and reach the solar cell, thereby achieving efficient photoelectric conversion.
UV resistance and UV care: The glass of solar panels should have good UV resistance characteristics to prevent damage to solar cell components caused by UV radiation. In addition, some solar glass also uses special coatings to provide additional UV protection.
Anti reflective coating: Some solar panel glass will be coated with anti reflective coating to reduce reflection loss, improve light absorption rate, and thus improve efficiency.
Hardness and scratch resistance: Solar panel glass needs to be sufficiently hard to prevent scratches or wear. This helps maintain the appearance and maintain the transparency of the glass.
Chemical resistance: Solar panel glass should have a certain degree of chemical resistance, which can resist pollutants, rainwater, corrosion, etc. in the atmosphere to ensure long-term stable performance.
Anti reflective glass: Some solar cell modules use anti reflective glass to reduce reflection loss and improve light absorption.
Impact resistance: Solar panel glass needs to have a certain level of impact resistance to prevent glass breakage or damage, especially in stormy or hail weather conditions.
Insulation performance: Solar panel glass should have good electrical insulation performance to ensure the safe operation of battery components and prevent current leakage.
