Technical FAQs 4
Does solar glass contain antimony?
However, the composition of solar glass varies, especially concerning antimony (Sb) content, depending on the production method. Antimony is used to enhance the performance of patterned solar glass but introduces environmental and health concerns, complicating recycling efforts.
What is antimony oxide?
Antimony oxide is a conditional glass former and simple binary SiO2-Sb2O3[22, 23], B2O3-Sb2O3[24, 25] and P2O5-Sb2O3glasses, and more complex glasses [11, 13, , , , , ], have all been studied to gain new and fundamental composition-structure-property understanding.
Is antimony oxide a conditional glass?
Antimony oxide is a conditional glass former and simple binary SiO2-Sb2O3 [22, 23], B2O3-Sb2O3 [24, 25] and P2O5-Sb2O3 glasses, and more complex glasses [11, 13, 27-31], have all been studied to gain new and fundamental composition-structure-property understanding.
Should PV module manufacturers be required to disclose antimony compounds?
To address these challenges, the ESIA Recommendation paper suggests that the European Union should consider mandating PV module manufacturers under the upcoming Ecodesign regulations to disclose the composition and manufacturing process of solar glass, including additives like antimony compounds.
