A Legacy of 40 Years of
Proven Innovation
First PV rear-side Ag/Al paste in 1983 for Arco Solar. And first PV front-side silver paste in 1987 for Solarex.
Launched PV145, the world's first fire-through silver metallization paste for crystalline silicon solar cell.
Introduced PV41X series of conductive silver paste products suitable for low-temperature photovoltaic cell manufacturing process, e.g. thin film and HJT, offering excellent bulk conductivity, adhesion and solderability.
Queen's Award for Enterprise in the Innovation category was honored for the continuous development of Solamet photovoltaic metallization paste, a key component in increasing the energy efficiency of solar cells. The Queen's Awards for Enterprise is the United Kingdom's most prestigious award for business performance.
Introduced PV17x,a series of revolutionary conductive silver paste products based on the patented Pb-Te-O glass frit technology, enabled the mass production adoption of LDE cell technology and greatly improved the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic cells by 0.2-0.4%.
Introduced world's first aluminum paste tailored designed for PERC and enabled the large-scale mass production of PERC cell technology.
Introduced PV56x tabbing paste incorporating novel floating glass frit designed to improve efficiency and adhesion performances.
Introduced PV3N1, the world's earliest mass production metallization paste solution for n-type solar cells.
Introduced the exclusive PV93X, an unique single paste solution that can simultaneously make contact to both the n and p regions, significantly simplified the production process for high efficiency IBC technology.
Introduced PV76S/PV36x/PV56x, the world's first total package of metallization solution to PERC solar cells.
Receiving 2015 Solar+ Power award in PV Materials category by Solamet® PV19A photovoltaic metallization paste, the first product in the PV19x series, is a front side silver paste based on proprietary Tellurium frit technology to optimize the efficiency with extreme Lightly Doped Emitters (LDEs) because it improves contact resistance by 10 fold. It enhances the power output of solar cells by enabling fine line printing down to 30 microns and demonstrating excellent paste transfer for improved line aspect ratios that minimizes the shading effect on the surface of the solar cells, while maintaining superior electrical conductivity.
Solamet® was granted " Solar Industry Award" in the PV Materials category for its PV19x series of PV metallization pastes, designed to help boost the power output of solar panels, lower overall system costs and improve the return on investments in solar energy systems from 2015 European PV Solar Energy Conference held in Hamburg, Germany.
Introduced PVD1X/PVD2X, a novel metallization package for double-printing in mass production use. PVD2X incorporates the floating design concept suitable for both double printing and later dual-printing technologies.
Introduced PVD2x/PV3Nx/PV6N1 the world's first total package of metallization solution to TOPCon solar cells.
Solamet® Pb-Te-O frit technology is awarded the prestigious American Chemical Society Heroes of Chemistry Award for the outstanding contribution to the global photovoltaic industry.
Introduced PVD2B_x busbar product with different solids for dual printing application,enabling high adhesion with low cost solution for front-side metallization.
Solamet Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. successfully acquired the Solamet® PV metallization paste business from DuPont and upgraded its company name under the Solamet® brand name globally.
Develop novel low temperature paste for HJT/Perovskite solar cells, which enables fine line printing to save laydown and room temperature storage to be process friendly.
