CEA & Mitsubishi Chemical Performance Polymers demonstrate compelling results of a novel frontsheet for lightweight PV applications, compatible with European supplying. This innovated material is formulated without PFAS raw material intentionally added.
Advanced frontsheet material for lightweight PV applications
Published on 06/18/2025
The CEA at INES has a strong expertise on lightweight photovoltaic modules together with state-of-the-art experimental platform to support PV module development and pre-qualification for specific applications.
Mitsubishi Chemical group is a GLOBAL leading company FOR CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS & PERFORMANCE SPECIALTY POLYMERS.
Light PV panels prepared with MCPP material technology polymer as frontsheet displayed very good results with the summary below:
PV Modules integrating MCPP frontsheet material meet the target application's general specifications in terms of PV norms & robustness (such as thermal cycling, humidity, thermal behavior, damp heat …), while demonstrating ability to lightness capability, compatibility with 3D designs!
This material formulated without PFAS additives intentionally added is a very promising polymer candidate for lightweight PV modules.
