Patent number: 9987907Abstract: Composite film structures including a polyfluorourethane (PFU) layer are described. The PFU layer is in contact with a polymer film to form a thermoformable composite film. The composite films exhibit a low Tg and resulting shapeability allowing them to be applied to non-planar irregular surfaces. The composite achieves thermoformability in the absence of deep dip dyeing.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2016Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: MADICO, INC.Inventor: Marina Temchenko

Publication number: 20140109956Abstract: The present invention provides a high performance backsheet (alternatively referred to backing sheet) for photovoltaic applications and methods for manufacture of the same. The high performance backsheet includes a compounded thermoplastic polyolefin or compounded ethylene vinyl acetate (“EVA”). The compounded thermoplastic polyolefin or EVA may be used by itself as one layer, or incorporated into a layer, or as a layer in multilayer laminate. The compounded thermoplastic polyolefin or EVA is useful in eliminating the necessity of using polyester in the backing sheet.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2013Publication date: April 24, 2014Applicant: Madico, Inc.Inventors: Marina Temchenko, David W.
