  • Abstract
    The silicon adhesive used to bond coverglass onto a solar cell can be replaced by a thin layer of FEP Teflon. The advantage of using Teflon as the adhesive is that it is supplied as a thin sheet in thicknesses of 25 or 50 μm and can be cut to size prior to use. A review is presented of the work done to date on the Teflon bonding process including the results of some critical EOL tests
