Why read a solar blog? Well, to get the latest information, and to keep up-to-date with products, processes, and the industry… Recently Renewable Energy World published an Indium Corporation tech article describing a need for flexible metallization pastes for thin-film PV cells. If you were looking for more data than you would find on a typical data sheet, this is a perfect resource for you:
"Now, a flexible high-performance silver metallization paste has been developed for use in flexible thin-film photovoltaic solar cells. The binder of the paste is a soft epoxy-based resin system. Compared with a more conventional thermoplastic paste system, this exhibits superior adhesion and is flexible. The new material, designated LTTF-6363, also displays excellent print characteristics and non-slump performance – extremely important for maximizing the effective open areas on solar cells."
