Solar Backsheet
Solar backsheets form the rear protective layer of modules that use a polymer back construction.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
A solar backsheet is the last layer at the bottom of the solar PV panel and is typically made of a polymer or a combination of polymers. One of the lessvisible but essential components of a solar panel to their long-term performance is backsheets.
Weathering, adhesion and mechanical behaviour need to be maintained as an assembly. Fluoropolymer-based and other constructions differ. A backsheet is distinct from the encapsulation layer inside the module.
What turns activity into demand
Solar capacity does not convert directly into polymer-backsheet area. Module dimensions and the share using a backsheet provide the bridge. Separate film layers, completed backsheets and modules. Modules using rear glass do not automatically require the same backsheet area.
The commercial boundary
Separate film layers, completed backsheets and modules. Modules using rear glass do not automatically require the same backsheet area.
