Silicones Enhance Solar Panel Durability and Efficiency in Global Market Growth
SOLAR ENERGY
In 2025, the EU's solar PV capacity reached 406 GW, surpassing its 2022 target of 380 GW. The US saw a 27% increase in solar generation, while China exceeded 1,000 GW. Silicones play a critical role in solar panel assembly, providing encapsulation, sealing, and adhesion, essential for withstanding harsh weather conditions and ensuring long-term reliability. RTV silicones are favored for their durability, flexibility, and production efficiency, enabling rapid curing and strong adhesion for junction boxes and panel assembly.
