+ Optimal Film Properties
The highly transparent, weather-resistant and anti-adhesive ETFE film is used for the front and rear surface protection of photovoltaic modules.The fluoropolymer film for photovoltaic modules provides a strong dirt-repellent effect to the outside, while on the inside it allows a strong connection to the encapsulation film.
The ETFE film can also be used effectively to substitute glass in the front sheet area and thus significantly reduce the weight of the modules.In the manufacture of solar collectors, NOWOFLON ET offers a significant increase in performance due to its extremely high thermal resistance as a convection barrier.
