Vulcanization or curing is one of the most important processes in rubber technologies.
During this process, plastic rubber compounds by parallel and subsequent physical and …

We measure and discuss the complex refractive index of conventional ethylene vinyl acetate
(EVA) and an EVA with enhanced UV-transmission based on spectroscopic ellipsometry …

Equilibrium swelling and rheological tests were adopted to systematically investigate the
effects of softener type and dosage on the crosslink densities. The results turned out that the …

The non-isothermal crosslinking process of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) initiated by several
crosslinking agents was studied by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The …

This chapter gives a summary of encapsulation materials for solar modules. The state-of-the-
art technology for solar glass melting, glass formation, and glass processing is presented …

ABSTRACT EVA copolymer foils are widely used as encapsulants for photovoltaic (PV) cells
in PV modules. These foils need to be crosslinked during module manufacturing, to enhance …

Relationship between crosslink densities of peroxide cured poly (ethylene-co-vinyl
acetate)(EVA) and delta torques of EVA compounds in cure curves was examined, and …

Featured Application Revitalization of PV power plants affected by natural disasters. Abstract
Infrared thermography, in the analysis of photovoltaic (PV) power plants, is a mature …

Encapsulant is a key packaging component of photovoltaic (PV) modules, which protects the
solar cell from physical, environmental and electrical damages. Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) …

The work presented in this thesis comprises research into degradation paths that cause
corrosion of different components of solar photovoltaic (PV) cells and quantifies the impact of …
