6 FAQs about [Solar Photovoltaic Self-Cleaning Coating Construction]

Why do photovoltaic panels need a self-cleaning coating?

The self-cleaning coating has attracted extensive attention in the photovoltaic industry and the scientific community because of its unique mechanism and high adaptability. Therefore, an efficient and stable self-cleaning coating is necessary to protect the cover glass on the photovoltaic panel. There are many self-cleaning phenomena in nature.

Which method is suitable for self-cleaning coating of photovoltaic modules?

The preparation methods suitable for self-cleaning coating of photovoltaic modules include LBL, CVD, sol–gel method, and plasma-etching technology. LBL, CVD and sol–gel technologies are all CVD-based surface treatment technologies, which have difficulty in precision control. Sol–gel method and LBL are both economical.

What is the difference between self-cleaning and uncoated photovoltaic modules?

In contrast, self-cleaning coatings have lower cost and more reliable technology. Piliougine et al. (2013) compared the power generated by uncoated and coated photovoltaic modules and found that the module with self-cleaning coating lost 2.5% of energy every day, while the uncoated module lost about 3.3%.

Which nanomaterial can be used for self-cleaning coating on solar PV panels?

Apart from SiO 2 nanomaterial, titanium dioxide (TiO 2) is another well-known nanomaterial that can be used for self-cleaning coating on solar PV panels as it possesses both hydrophilic and photocatalysis properties. The developed TiO 2 /silane coating possesses the WCA below 10°.

What is self-cleaning coating on solar cell glass?

In 2016, Xu et al. have invented the self-cleaning coating on solar cell glass by using spin-coating and reactive ion etching. The prepared superhydrophobic self-cleaning coating possesses WCA around 154° and optical transmission coating around 88% in the wavelength of 300−800 nm.

Which method is used for self-cleaning of photovoltaic glass cover?

Because of its compatibility with glass, such methods are particularly conducive to the formation of transparent and super-hydrophobic films on the glass surface (Yan et al. 2011). Therefore, the sol–gel method is often used for self-cleaning of photovoltaic glass cover.
