Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing silicon-based solar front silver paste. The paste consists of 0.5 to 5 percent of glass powder, 40 to 85 percent of laminar silver powder, 5 to 45 percent of nano silver powder, 5 to 10 percent of organic carrier, 2 to 6 percent of solvent and 0.2 to 2 percent of auxiliary agent. The method mainly comprises the following steps of: (1) preparing the glass powder, (2) preparing the organic carrier, and (3) preparing the paste. According to the main design scheme of the invention, the printing height of a grid line and the conversion efficiency of acontact resistor and a battery can be changed by changing the adding proportion of the glass powder, the laminar silver powder and the nano silver powder; the viscosity and the printability of a product can be adjusted by changing the adding proportion of the organic carrier and the solvent; and the plasticity, leveling property and printability of the product can be adjusted by changing the adding proportion of a plasticizer. The paste of the invention has excellent printability, the sintered paste and a silicon chip form good alloy, a grid line electrode has great height, the series resistance is low, and the battery has high conversion efficiency.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic materials and relates to a method for preparing front silver paste for silicon-based solar energy. Background technique: [0002] Traditional fossil energy is increasingly scarce, and the problem of global climate change caused by excessive emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases has long existed and intensified. More and more people and governments in countries have realized that the transformation of energy structure is imperative. Solar photovoltaic power generation The widespread use of clean and renewable energy has become the trend of the times. The advanced countries represented by Germany and Japan have taken the lead in adopting effective government subsidy policies, which has led to a sharp increase in the demand for photovoltaic cells, and has also driven the world, including my country. With the rapid rise of various photovoltaic production and markets, China has succe...
