Viscose tape on the back of photovoltaic panels

What are photovoltaic tapes used for?

Photovoltaic tapes for the renewable energy market for bonding, venting, insulation, protection & masking. Custom rolls & die-cut shapes available.

What type of adhesive is used for solar panels?

Made with double sided, industrial strength adhesive or our custom hybrid system. High tack adhesive film protects photovoltaic module glass, aluminum, and various metals from damages. Use our residue-free film tape during shipping, handling, and production line processes. PROTEK™ film solar tape also resists UV and outdoor aging up to 6 months.

Can Tedlar PV rescue tape help extend the life of solar panels?

“There is great demand from both module manufacturers and asset owners for repair products which can help extend the usable lifetime of solar panels. Our specialized repair process, customized for Tedlar PV Rescue Tape, reduces costs versus a full replacement of affected panels.

What is the difference between Peel & stick tape & high strength adhesive?

Convenient peel and stick tape bonds quickly while high strength adhesive continues to get stronger over time for a lifelong, UV resistant hold. Very high bond acrylic tapes replace messy wet glue systems to secure rail bars to the back of PV modules in frameless module systems.

What are the benefits of Pset process for solar panels?

PSET has now been commonly used across this industry and is a reliable trend for solar panel manufacturing. The following benefits have been observed when companies switched to PSET processes. The PSET liquid edge seal is applied in a continuous bead all the way around the perimeter of the solar panel.

What happens if a PV panel is replaced?

If voltage or current differs on a replacement panel, it cannot simply be integrated into an existing string and new electrical layouts need to be made, which involves planning and engineering work. DuPont has come to the rescue with its PV Rescue Tape, at a fraction of the cost of panel replacement.
