Abstract

Provided is a primer for a solar cell module which makes it possible to prevent peeling of a surface protective material from a sealing material over a long time, and a solar cell module manufactured using this primer. The primer includes 40 to 95 parts by mass of a polymerizable ester, 5 to 60 parts by mass of an adhesion promoter, and a polymerization initiator. The polymerizable ester includes at least one of an acryloyl group and a methacryloyl group. The adhesion promoter includes a functional group improvable is adhesion to an acrylic resin or a methacrylic resin, and an alkoxysilyl group. The polymerization initiator is configured to be able to initiate polymerization of the polymerizable ester. The content of the polymerization initiator is 0.1 to 10 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass as a total of the polymerizable ester and the adhesion promoter.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A primer for a solar cell module, comprising:
40 to 95 parts by mass of a polymerizable ester including at least one of an acryloyl group and a methacryloyl group;
5 to 60 parts by mass of an adhesion promoter including a functional group that is improvable in adhesion to an acrylic resin or a methacrylic resin, and an alkoxysilyl group; and
a polymerization initiator for initiating polymerization of the polymerizable ester, the content of which being 0.1 to 10 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass as a total of the polymerizable ester and the adhesion promoter.

2. The primer for a solar cell module according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesion promoter includes at least one of an acryloyl group and a methacryloyl group as the functional group.

3. A solar cell module comprising:
a solar cell provided with a light receiving face;
a sealing material that is composed of a transparent resin including a silane coupling agent and covers the periphery of the solar cell;
an adhesive material that is composed of a cured product of the primer according to claim 1 , and is laminated on the sealing material at the side of the light receiving face of the solar cell;
a surface protective material that is composed of a transparent resin and is laminated on the adhesive material; and
a mixture layer that is formed between the adhesive material and the surface protective material and is composed of a mixture of the adhesive material and the surface protective material.

4. The solar cell module according to claim 3 , wherein the mixture layer has a thickness of 0.5 μm or more.

5. The solar cell module according to claim 3 , wherein the surface protective material is composed of a polycarbonate as the transparent resin.

6. The primer for a solar cell module according to claim 1 , wherein the primer contains 40 to 80 parts by mass of the polymerizable ester and 20 to 60 parts by mass of the adhesion promoter.
