摘要： The invention relates to high efficiency solar collection devices having a matte surface, a low refractive index surface, or both, that increases solar radiation transmission into the device. The matte surface is on a thermoplastic and may be provided in many ways, such as by a matting agent, by the use of a matte chill roll, embossing, or other techniques. The matte and/or low refractive index surface may be a coating, film (single or multi-layer) or sheet (single or multi-layer). The invention is especially useful in both rigid and flexible photovoltaic modules.

摘要： High modulus thermoplastic compositions and composites are produced which exhibit enhanced melt integrity and strength, allowing the composites to be melt-drawn to smooth surfaced, high tolerance profiles, such as thin-walled tubing, wire, coatings, films, etc. The melt integrity is improved by adding to the thermoplastic prior to or during thermoplastic melt processing a silicone component which will be vulcanized within the thermoplastic to form a silicone semi-interpenetrating polymer network initiated during the melt processing of the thermoplastic. The composition contains about 0.1 to 20, and preferably about 1 to 4 weight percent of the silicone network, and may also contain fibrous reinforcement and/or filler/modifiers.

摘要： The invention relates to a multi-layer weatherable film structure having an outer layer of a highly weatherable film, a layer having a high thermal deformation temperature, an optional tie layer, and a thin layer of polyolefin or polyamide. The highly weatherable film layer preferably is polyvinylidene fluoride. The polyolefin or polyamide layer is less than 500 microns in thickness, and preferably the whole film structure is less than 750 microns thick. The polyolefinjpolyamide side of the film structure can easily be adhered to many different substances—especially polyolefins and polyamides. This film can be used to provide a highly weatherable protective layer a substrate. One useful application for the film is in a photovoltaic module to protect the back side of the module from weathering and abrasion. The multi-layer film structure can be adhered to a typical polyolefin-based encapsulant layer and used as a backsheet encapsulant in a photovoltaic module.

摘要： The invention relates to a tough, flexible multi-layer tube or other structure having a vinylidene fluoride contact layer. Such a tube is especially useful for high-purity contact applications, and contact where chemical resistance is needed. The vinylidene fluoride layer is melt-processible and may be a homopolymer, copolymer or terpolymer.

摘要： The invention relates to a rotomolding process for forming a multi-layer article of two different polymers with different melting points in which an outer layer polymer powder is added to a rotational molder along with an inner layer polymer powder that is separated from the outer layer powder by a release film. The release film has a particular melting point that is greater than that of the outer layer polymer and preferably between the melting points of the inside layer and outside layer polymers. In one embodiment, the release layer forms an enclosure or bag in which the inner layer (higher melting point) powder is enclosed. In another embodiment the release film forms a barrier between an insulated cavity and the mold. The process provides a means for a “one-shot” rotomolding method.
