Abstract: The present invention is directed to an electrically conductive composition comprising: a) a resin component comprising: 1) a first epoxy resin; and, 2) a second epoxy resin and/or a functionalised polybutadiene resin and/or a functionalised butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer; b) a curative for epoxy resin; c) an electrically conductive filler; d) a one core shell rubber toughener; and, e) a reactive diluent component comprising 1) a monofunctional epoxy diluent and/or 2) a polyfunctional epoxy diluent; wherein said composition further comprises a curing agent if said functionalised polybutadiene resin is present in said resin component.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrically conductive, room temperature stable, one-component (1K) epoxy adhesive composition comprising: a) an epoxy resin; b) at least one ionic constituent as a catalyst for epoxy homo-polymerization; c) electrically conductive particles; and, d) inorganic particles selected from the group consisting of barium sulphate (BaSO4), magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2), aluminium hydroxide (Al(OH)3), zinc oxide (ZnO), zinc hydroxide (Zn(OH)2), titanium dioxide (TiO2), iron oxide and mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrically conductive composition comprising a) a resin selected from the group consisting of epoxy (meth)acrylate, (poly)ester (meth)acrylate, urethane (meth)acrylate, silicone (meth)acrylate, poly(iso)butylene (meth)acrylate, (poly)isoprene (meth)acrylate, polybutylene (meth)acrylate and mixtures thereof; b) an acrylic monomer; c) an electrically conductive filler; and d) a curing agent. The composition is particularly suitable for use in a solar cell and/or a photovoltaic module, especially in the photovoltaic module, wherein the solar cells are shingled.

Abstract: A nanocrystal composite comprising a plurality of nanocrystals comprising a core comprising a metal or a semiconductive compound or a mixture thereof and at least one ligand, wherein said core is surrounded by at least one ligand, and a polythiourethane matrix, wherein said polythiourethane matrix is formed by thermal or UV induced nucleophilic addition of polyisocyanates having at least two isocyanate groups and polythiols having at least two thiol groups. Composite of the present invention provides improved thermal and photo thermal stability to the nanocrystals.
