Abstract: The present invention achieves a solar cell protective material containing a moisture-resistant film with a moisture vapor permeability of less than 0.1 g/m2/day, but not decreasing the moisture resistance for a long term, preventing delamination, and having excellent flexibility and excellent moisture resistance. The present invention provides a solar cell protective material having an effect in preventing the performance degradation of a solar cell and improving the durability of a solar cell. The solar cell protective material includes a fluorine-based resin film; a pressure sensitive adhesive layer; and a moisture-resistant film having a base material and an inorganic layer on at least one side of the base material, the moisture-resistant film having a moisture vapor permeability of less than 0.

Abstract: An excellent surface protective material having moisture proofness that is not deteriorated for a prolonged period of time is provided for a highly moisture proof surface protective material for a solar cell, containing a moisture proof film that comprises a substrate having on one surface thereof an inorganic thin film layer and has a water vapor permeability of less than 0.1 g/m2·day. The surface protective material for a solar cell contains: a moisture proof film that comprises a substrate having on one surface thereof an inorganic thin film layer and has a water vapor permeability of less than 0.1 g/m2·day, a weatherproof film on a side of the inorganic thin film layer of the moisture proof film; and a back surface film that has a melting point of 80° C. or more and 180° C. or less on the opposite side of the moisture proof film from the inorganic thin film layer.

Abstract: A moisture proof laminated film is provided that is excellent in transparency, has considerably high moisture proofness, and is suppressed in generation of bubbles between moisture proof films, even when plural moisture proof films are used. A moisture proof laminated film (1) containing a moisture proof film A (2) having a water vapor transmission rate (WTR (A)) at 40° C. and 90% RH of 1.0 (g/m2·day) or less and a moisture proof film B (3) containing a substrate (4) having on one surface thereof an inorganic layer (5) and having a water vapor transmission rate (WTR (B)) at 40° C. and 90% RH of 10% or less of the water vapor transmission rate (WTR (A)), which are laminated through an adhesive layer (7).

Abstract: Provided is a cover film for solar cells, with which solar cell modules are easy to produce, which comprises an encapsulant resin layer excellent in softness, transparency and heat resistance, and a weather-resistant layer excellent in weather resistance, moisture proofness, transparency and heat resistance and having high adhesiveness to the encapsulant resin layer, and is therefore excellent in handleability, and which is effective for reducing the weight of solar cell modules and for enhancing the impact resistance and the durability thereof; and also provided is a solar cell module produced by the use of the cover film for solar cells. Disclosed is production of a cover film for solar cells by laminating weather-resistant layer or a surface protective layer, and an encapsulant resin layer comprising a resin composition that contains an ethylene-a-olefin random copolymer and an ethylene-?-olefin block copolymer both having specific thermal properties.

Abstract: The electroluminescent device successively comprises a cathode, an electroluminescent layer, a transparent electrode layer, an evanescent light-scattering layer comprising a matrix composed of a low-refractive material containing light-scattering particles, and a transparent sheet/plate. Such an electroluminescent device is decreased in total reflection not only at a boundary surface between a transparent substrate and an outside air layer but also at a boundary surface of the transparent electrode layer on its light extraction side, and therefore, is considerably improved in light extraction efficiency. In addition, in the electroluminescent device provided with a barrier layer, the transparent electrode layer and the electroluminescent layer can be well protected so that deterioration of electroluminescent pigments and occurrence of dark spots can be effectively prevented, resulting in enhanced-life of the device.
