Description

Self-cleaning antireflection coating on surface of transparent material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of solar cells, and particularly relates to a self-cleaning antireflection coating on the surface of a transparent material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Since the 21 st century, natural disasters occur frequently in the world, and the natural disasters are inevitable for developing renewable and low-pollution novel energy sources. Solar energy is a clean and renewable energy source, the solar energy radiated to the surface of the earth each year is equivalent to 130 trillion tons of standard coal, is 1 ten thousand times of the total energy consumption of the world every year at present, and is inexhaustible.
The current solar cell generally uses photovoltaic glass to cover the surface of the component so as to protect fragile internal devices, but due to the huge difference of refractive indexes between the glass and air, incident light can be reflected on the surface of the glass, so that the average transmittance in the wave band range (380-1100 nm) of the spectral response of the crystalline silicon solar cell is only about 92%, and serious optical loss is caused. Therefore, the preparation of an antireflection film on the surface of glass to increase the transmittance of incident light has been the research target of numerous scholars all over the world.
The earliest glass antireflection films utilized acid catalyzed SiO 2 Sol as a film layer, but because of dense acid catalyzed SiO 2 The refractive index of the sol is close to 1.45, and the antireflection performance is poor, so that the acid-catalyzed SiO is often subjected to high-temperature heat treatment 2 Condensation of the sol to form fine SiO 2 And (3) nanoparticles. Because more pores are left when the particles are accumulated, the reduced refractive index of the film layer can reach a more ideal range, and the film has an excellent antireflection effect; however, due to the structure of the plurality of pore channels generated during the high-temperature heat treatment, the film layer is very easy to corrode in the natural environment, loses the antireflection effect and even influences the strength of the photovoltaic glass. In 2007, the Dismann group of the Netherlands and Sheffier, UKCooperation of Germany university develops a method for using hollow SiO 2 Antireflection coatings prepared from nanospheres using hollow SiO 2 The nanosphere has the advantage of higher porosity, and more coupling agents can be added, so that the holes are hidden in the film layer, and the nanosphere has an antireflection effect and is not easily corroded by the external environment.
However, the antireflection coating prepared by the above method does not generally have a self-cleaning effect, and the solar cell is easily contaminated by dust, sand and the like in an actual working environment, so that incident light is scattered, and the power generation efficiency is reduced. The existing solution is to regularly clean the surface of the photovoltaic glass to remove surface contamination, but the method wastes a large amount of water resources, and the used cleaning agent can pollute the environment. For this reason, a new generation of glass antireflective coatings needs to incorporate self-cleaning capabilities into the field of research.
The Chinese invention patent with the application number of 20141010758433.3 provides a preparation method of an antireflection and super-hydrophilic coating for photovoltaic glass. The method comprises the steps of preparing hollow sphere nano particles with a silicon dioxide-titanium dioxide double-layer structure, and carrying out 550 ℃ high-temperature calcination after the hollow sphere nano particles are pulled and formed into a film on a glass substrate, so that the titanium dioxide is subjected to crystal form conversion. The preparation method of the patent needs to carry out high-temperature heat treatment on the glass substrate, on one hand, a large amount of energy is consumed, on the other hand, the application range of the coating is limited, and the preparation method is not suitable for the built photovoltaic power station.

Example 3
This example provides a method for preparing a self-cleaning antireflection coating on a glass surface with different titanium source compound usage (butyl titanate usage is 0.1 ml) compared to example 1, specifically as follows:
(1) The sol containing the silicon dioxide hollow nano particles is prepared by adopting a template method, which comprises the following steps: adding 0.3 g of polyacrylic acid into 6.75 ml of ammonia water, and stirring for 15 minutes to fully dissolve the polyacrylic acid and the ammonia water to obtain a polyacrylic acid-ammonia water mixed solution; dropwise adding the polyacrylic acid-ammonia water mixed solution into 120 ml of absolute ethyl alcohol, and stirring for 15 minutes to obtain a light white mixed solution; then dissolving 1 ml of tetraethoxysilane in 10 ml of absolute ethyl alcohol, slowly dropwise adding the tetraethoxysilane into the mixed solution, and stirring the mixed solution for 6 hours at room temperature after the dropwise adding is finished to obtain light blue sol containing the silicon dioxide hollow nano particles; the silica hollow nanoparticles are about 50 nanometers in size;
(2) Taking the sol containing the hollow silica nanoparticles, adding 0.5 g of hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, 0.1 g of hydroxypropyl cellulose and 0.05 ml of acetylacetone, and stirring at room temperature for 20 minutes to fully dissolve the sol to obtain a first sol; 0.1 ml of butyl titanate was mixed in a 1:10 in ethanol, and dropwise adding the mixture into the first sol at a speed of 20 ml per hour, wherein the mixture gradually turns to light yellow to obtain a second sol;
(3) Carrying out primary heat treatment on the second sol at 100 ℃ for 1 hour to obtain the amorphous titanium dioxide coated hollow silicon dioxide nano particles; carrying out secondary heat treatment on the silica hollow nano-particles coated with the amorphous titanium dioxide at 200 ℃ for 2 hours to convert the amorphous titanium dioxide into anatase type, so as to obtain silica-titanium dioxide composite hollow nano-particles; dispersing the silicon dioxide-titanium dioxide composite hollow nano particles in 60 ml of ethanol to obtain third sol;
(4) Adding 1 ml of acid catalytic silica sol into the third sol, and fully stirring for 30 minutes to uniformly mix the third sol and the fourth sol to obtain a fourth sol; firstly, processing a glass substrate with the size of 4cm x 4cm by acetone: ethanol: ultrasonically cleaning the glass substrate in a mixed solution with the deionized water ratio of 1; and soaking the cleaned glass into the fourth sol, pulling the glass into a film at the speed of 200 mm per minute, and repeating the pulling step for 2 times to obtain a self-cleaning antireflection coating, which is marked as a coating C, on the surface of the glass substrate.
Compared with the coating A prepared in the example 1, the coating C has the advantages that the coating C is insufficient in generated titanium dioxide coating and poor in hydrophilic performance because the using amount of the butyl titanate is 0.1 ml and the using amount of the titanium source compound is too small, the contact angle of a coated sample is about 22.3 degrees, and the super-hydrophilic effect cannot be achieved.
Example 4
This example provides a method for preparing a self-cleaning antireflection coating on a glass surface with different titanium source compound usage (butyl titanate usage is 0.5 ml) compared to example 1, specifically as follows:
(1) The sol containing the silicon dioxide hollow nano particles is prepared by adopting a template method, which comprises the following steps: adding 0.3 g of polyacrylic acid into 6.75 ml of ammonia water, and stirring for 15 minutes to fully dissolve the polyacrylic acid and the ammonia water to obtain a polyacrylic acid-ammonia water mixed solution; dropwise adding the polyacrylic acid-ammonia water mixed solution into 120 ml of absolute ethyl alcohol, and stirring for 15 minutes to obtain a light white mixed solution; then dissolving 1 ml of tetraethoxysilane in 10 ml of absolute ethyl alcohol, slowly dripping the tetraethoxysilane into the mixed solution, and stirring the mixed solution for 6 hours at room temperature after dripping is finished to obtain light blue sol containing the silicon dioxide hollow nano particles; the silica hollow nanoparticles are about 50 nanometers in size;
(2) Taking the sol containing the hollow silica nanoparticles, adding 0.5 g of hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, 0.1 g of hydroxypropyl cellulose and 0.05 ml of acetylacetone, and stirring at room temperature for 20 minutes to fully dissolve the sol to obtain a first sol; 0.5 ml of butyl titanate was mixed in a 1:10 volume ratio is dispersed in ethanol, and the mixture is dropwise added into the first sol at the speed of 20 milliliters per hour, and the mixture gradually turns to light yellow to obtain a second sol;
(3) Carrying out primary heat treatment on the second sol at 100 ℃ for 1 hour to obtain the amorphous titanium dioxide coated silicon dioxide hollow nanoparticles; carrying out secondary heat treatment on the silica hollow nano-particles coated with the amorphous titanium dioxide at 200 ℃ for 2 hours to convert the amorphous titanium dioxide into anatase type, so as to obtain silica-titanium dioxide composite hollow nano-particles; dispersing the silicon dioxide-titanium dioxide composite hollow nano particles in 60 ml of ethanol to obtain third sol;
(4) Adding 1 ml of acid catalytic silica sol into the third sol, and fully stirring for 30 minutes to uniformly mix the third sol and the fourth sol to obtain a fourth sol; a glass substrate with the size of 4cm x 4cm is firstly subjected to acetone: ethanol: ultrasonically cleaning the glass substrate in a mixed solution with the deionized water ratio of 1; and (3) soaking the cleaned glass into the fourth sol, pulling the glass into a film at the speed of 200 mm per minute, and repeating the pulling step for 2 times to obtain a self-cleaning antireflection coating, which is marked as a coating D, on the surface of the glass substrate.
Compared with the coating C prepared in the embodiment 3, the amount of the titanium dioxide generated is gradually increased due to the increase of the amount of the titanium source compound, and the hydrophilicity is continuously enhanced. However, because the surface of titanium dioxide particles has high surface energy, the particles agglomerate with each other in order to reduce the surface energy, so that the sol cannot form a flat and uniform film layer during film coating, but form island-shaped accumulation to cause the scattering of incident light, and the transmittance at the highest point of a spectrum can only reach 93.2%.
Example 5
This example provides a method for preparing a self-cleaning anti-reflective coating on a glass surface by different heat treatments (the second heat treatment time is 4 hours) compared to example 1, which comprises the following steps:

(4) Adding 1 ml of acid-catalyzed silica sol into the third sol, and fully stirring for 30 minutes to uniformly mix the third sol and the fourth sol to obtain a fourth sol; firstly, processing a glass substrate with the size of 4cm x 4cm by acetone: ethanol: ultrasonically cleaning the glass substrate in a mixed solution with the deionized water ratio of 1; and (3) soaking the cleaned glass into the fourth sol, pulling the glass into a film at the speed of 200 mm per minute, and repeating the pulling step for 2 times to obtain a self-cleaning antireflection coating, which is marked as a coating E, on the surface of the glass substrate.
Compared with the coating A prepared in example 1, due to the prolonged time of the second heat treatment, the number of the titanium dioxide nanoparticles in the coating E is gradually increased, the agglomeration among the nanoparticles is caused, the sol is also easy to form island-shaped agglomeration during film coating, the scattering of incident light is caused, and the transmittance at the highest point of the spectrum can only reach 94.5%.
