ČSN EN IEC 62788-6-2

This part of IEC 62788 describes methods to measure the permeation properties of polymeric materials. The degradation of PV modules is known to go through many different corrosion processes. These degradation processes may depend upon moisture ingress into the encapsulant, edge seal, frontsheet, or backsheet materials. Typical polymeric materials used include (amongst other polymers) ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) and polyolefins for encapsulants, polyisobutylene (PIB) for edge seals, and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), or polyvinylidine fluoride (PVDF) for backsheets.
