ENERGY EFFICIENCY VIA SOLARGAIn
A Bright Future
Our teams take pride in making energy efficient products and solutions that help our customers achieve higher levels of performance, helping conserve resources in end-use applications.
SolarGain Edge Sealant is a proven Polyisobutylene Based Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive that helps to delay moisture ingress and prevent premature power degradation in photovoltaic (PV) modules (commonly referred to as solar panels). The excellent adhesion of the sealant keeps moisture out and electricity in. The addition of desiccant to the adhesive creates a step change in delaying moisture migration to help protect cells, connections and conductive coatings from degradation. SolarGain Edge Sealant can help maximize performance and longevity.
“As solar panel manufacturers try to achieve higher and higher levels of module performance and longevity using greater moisture sensitive components, the need for higher levels of moisture protection throughout the photovoltaic marketplace are needed more than ever. With SolarGain technology, we can provide that protection, helping our customers in the solar power industry create more reliable modules.”
