Product Introduction
Solar module frames are an essential component of photovoltaic systems, primarily used for securing and sealing solar panels. They enhance the structural integrity of the modules, prolong their lifespan, and facilitate transportation and installation. Here is some detailed information about solar module frames:
1. Material Choice: Approximately 96% of frames on the market today are made from aluminum profiles due to their high strength, robustness, and excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance. Additionally, fiberglass composites, stainless steel, rubber, and other materials are used in specific, less common scenarios.
2. Functional Role: The primary function of frames is to protect the edges of photovoltaic glass, strengthen the sealing performance of the modules, and enhance mechanical strength, thereby ensuring the reliability and stability of the entire solar energy system.
3. Market Development: As the global solar market continues to expand, the frame market is also expected to grow continuously. For instance, in 2021, the global solar market was approximately 185GW, corresponding to a frame market of about 23 billion, with China accounting for 80%, or roughly 20 billion. It is anticipated that in the coming years, the frame market will keep growing with the increase in solar production capacity.
4. Development of New Materials: To reduce costs and improve performance, the industry is developing new types of frame materials. For example, Zhenshi Group has obtained the world's first German TÜV Rheinland certification for a composite material frame for photovoltaic modules, marking substantial progress in the application of fiberglass composites in the field of photovoltaic frames.
5. Standards and Specifications: The manufacturing of solar module frames typically follows certain standards and specifications to ensure product quality and performance. These standards may include dimensions, surface treatment methods, quality control systems, etc.
6. Environmental Impact: Due to the good recyclability of aluminum alloy frames, they have a relatively small environmental impact, which is one of the reasons why they dominate the market.
In summary, as a key component of solar photovoltaic systems, solar module frames not only directly affect the overall performance and reliability of the system but also play an important role in the development of the solar industry. With technological advancements and growing market demand, the materials, design, and manufacturing processes of solar module frames are constantly being innovated and optimized.
