Abstract: Disclosed are a sealing material for solar cell modules and a manufacturing method thereof capable of endowing good transparency and heat resistance to the sealing material for solar cell modules while using a polyethylene-based resin. The disclosed sealing material for solar cell modules uses a polyethylene-based resin with a density of 0.900 g/cm3 or less, and an MFR between 0.1 g/10 min and 1.0 g/10 min. The sealing material is obtained by melt molding a resin composition containing a polyethylene-based resin with density 0.890 g/cm3 or less, and a polymerization initiator contained at 0.02 mass % or more but less than 0.5 mass % of the composition, wherein the density difference of the resin composition before and after the melt molding is within 0.05 g/cm3, and the MFR difference of the resin composition before and after the melt molding is 1.0 g/10 min or greater.
