Adhesives/ Sealants
Epic Resins specializes in custom formulation of adhesives designed specifically to provide superior adhesion to photovoltaic cells. Epic Resins custom formulates a wide variety of solar panel adhesives for your specific application from quick curing adhesive for attaching the junction box to the PV panel to two component aliphatic polyurethane compounds with exceptional UV resistance.
Adhesives eliminate the need for mechanical fasteners, such as U-bolts and screws, and completely remove the stress points caused by these fasteners. By utilizing our custom formulated solar panel adhesives instead of mechanical fasteners, the need for constant maintenance, replacement inventory and installation costs are greatly reduced. Our custom formulated adhesives can be used not only for assembly of photovoltaic panels but also for attaching the panel frames to the mounting racks.
Depending upon what product you are manufacturing in the solar energy device market, you will have an assortment of substrates to coat or bond. Epic Resins manufactures a wide variety of formulations to adhere to a vast array of both metal and plastic substrates, including epoxy resins for electronics potting, moisture cure adhesives and polyurethane doming resins. We are especially adept at bonding dissimilar substrates and creating unique bonding adhesives for our customers.
Check out some of our products listed below to see which will apply to your particular needs or CONTACT us for custom solar bonding adhesives for your application.
