Abstract: An ultraviolet-ray absorbing polymer containing a monomer unit represented by general formula (12) below and a monomer unit derived from a monomer represented by general formula (1) below. In general formula (12), R6 represents any one selected from a group consisting of a hydrogen atom and a methyl group, U represents a hydrocarbon group, and the hydrocarbon group includes a skeleton absorbing ultraviolet rays and optionally contains a heteroatom. In general formula (1), R16 represents any one selected from a group consisting of a hydrogen atom and a methyl group, and Z represents any one selected from a group consisting of a chain hydrocarbon group having 10 or more carbon atoms and a polycyclic hydrocarbon group having 10 or more carbon atoms.

Abstract: To achieve improvement in initial conversion efficiency of solar cell modules, inhibition of deterioration in transparency of a resin, inhibition of degradation in adhesive properties with respect to a protective member over time, and inhibition of degradation in conversion efficiency. A resin composition for solar cell-sealing material according to the present invention includes an ethylene copolymer, and further includes at least one of: (i) a compound represented by the following general formula (1); (ii) a calcined product of the (i); (iii) a compound represented by the following general formula (2); and (iv) a calcined product of the (iii). The (i) has an average plate surface diameter of 0.01 to 0.9 ?m and a refractive index of 1.45 to 1.55, and the (iii) has an average plate surface diameter of 0.02 to 0.9 ?m and a refractive index of 1.48 to 1.6.
