zzFluoroSol Frontsheet

FluoroSol TM  films belong to a family of melt processable fluoropolymers well known for their superior weatherability and UV resistance.  They offer outstanding resistance to chemicals and weathering, low flammability, stress crack resistance and insulating properties.  Tough and flexible, these highly transparent films are the ideal frontsheet material for flexible and/or light-weight solar modules.   FluoroSol TM  frontsheets are surface-treated to ensure superb adhesion to SolarBond TM adhesive systems.

FluoroSol TM films are available as a "pre-laminate" with SolarBond TM E encapsulant with precise alignment.
