Abstract: Sealing film for solar cell which prevents conducting wires and electrodes of the solar cell from rusting and thereby enable the solar cell to retain its high photovoltaic performance for a long period. A light receiving surface sealing film for solar cell comprising ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, a cross-linking agent and an acid acceptor. A rear surface sealing film for solar cell comprising ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, a cross-linking agent and an acid acceptor, wherein the acid acceptor is contained in the range of not less than 0.5 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
Abstract: Some embodiments include compositions and/or methods related to optical compensation films. More particularly, some embodiments can include brominated polystyrene compositions, and/or methods for their preparation, suitable for forming optical compensation films. In some embodiments, suitable brominated polystyrene compositions, and/or methods for their preparation, can include aromatic rings having one or more acyl moieties.

Abstract: A gas-barrier film comprising an organic layer and an inorganic layer on a substrate film, wherein the organic layer is formed by vacuum vapor deposition of a composition containing a radical-polymerizable monomer and a polymerization initiator, followed by curing the composition, the polymerization initiator being liquid at 30° C. under one atmosphere and/or having a melting point of not higher than 30° C. The gas-barrier film has a low water vapor permeability.
Abstract: Disclosed is an azo compound represented by the formula (1) or (2) below, or a salt thereof. (In the formulae, A represents a substituted phenyl group or a naphthyl group having 1-3 sulfonic acid groups; X represents —N?N— or —NHCO—; R1-R4 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group or a lower alkoxyl group; m represents a number of 1-3; and n represents 0 or 1).
