Why do PV panels need a self-cleaning coating?
With the progressive development in nanotechnology, the demands on self-cleaning coating increasing among the PV panel industry. The end-users look forward to the flexible coating that has an easy spray-fabrication technique besides saving energy and time and applicable on any glass scale.
Can photocatalyst coating improve the efficiency of solar cells?
The author demonstrated great future of development of coating layer on PV panel where its great self-cleaning effect is enhanced by the mechanical sound absorption into the PV module and hydrophilic coating. The photocatalyst coating can increase the efficiency of solar cell by 2% and maximum power upto 4%.
Why is hydrophobic coating better than uncoated PV panel?
The hydrophobic coating capable to remove the dust particles by using natural air only. The high speed-wind improves the self-cleaning process, later enhances the overall efficiency of coated PV panel. At the same time, its anti-reflection properties can reduce the temperature of the coated PV panel by 10°C as compared to the uncoated PV panel.
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°.
Why is self-cleaning coating important for photovoltaic modules?
When self-cleaning coating is applied to photovoltaic modules, its self-cleaning performance is undoubtedly the most important. Researchers are also trying to find ways to improve the self-cleaning performance of super hydrophobic and super-hydrophilic coatings.
Why do photovoltaic panels need a transparent coating?
When sunlight shines on the photovoltaic panel, part of the visible light will be reflected, and the rest will be converted and utilized. Therefore, the transparency and anti-reflection of the self-cleaning coatings applied on photovoltaic modules cannot be ignored.
