What is a solar adhesive?

An adhesive is a substance that unites or bonds surfaces together. In the solar industry, adhesives are used throughout the process of manufacturing and installation. Henkel's adhesive Loctite 3388P enables high-strength ingot bonding in solar applications.

What are the benefits of solar adhesives?

Sustainability in Energy – Adhesives allow users to lower installation & running costs, as well as boost the efficiency of solar panels to influence higher use of renewable energy; having a more sustainable impact on the future landscape.

What are the benefits of adhesive-mounted solar panels?

Adhesive-mounted solar panels absorb the sunlight that would otherwise be hitting the roof directly, reducing the temperature and the power demand for air conditioning systems; boosting the performance and sustainability in energy. Therefore, reduced HVAC costs can be expected when using adhesives for solar panels.

Can solar panels be mounted with adhesives?

However, research from the Fraunhofer Center for Sustainable Energy Systems has shown that solar panels mounted with adhesives actually have a cooling effect on roofs; boosting solar panel efficiency in the long run.

Can solar panels be attached to a roof?

One common concern with solar panels attached to roofs is their tendency to heat up, and potentially degrade the roof. This is usually dealt with by acquiring extra HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) equipment to regulate temperatures.

How much does a heliasol solar module weigh?

Because of its unique layer structure in the solar film, it made up of plastic films and a very thin organic photovoltaic layer. Therefore, HeliaSol has a total weight of very low less than 2 kg per square metre. In contrast, traditional solar modules weigh about 15-20 kilograms per square metre, often with a metal substructure.
