FormSolutions by Application

Silicon Production & Thin-Film PV

  • SIRIDION® – High-purity chlorosilanes and monosilane for solar-grade silicon and thin-film technologies, ensuring consistent quality and optimizing deposition processes.

Encapsulation & Coatings

  • DYNASYLAN® – Functional silanes for strong adhesion and moisture protection in encapsulation films, safeguarding module integrity.
  • PERTRONIC® –Hydrogen peroxide dissolves nanoparticles out of the crystalline silicon so that the nanolayer can be coated onto the solar module after evaporation of the alcohol.

Wafer Cutting & Process Optimization

  • TEGO® SURTEN – Advanced wetting agents and defoamers that enhance cutting fluid performance, reducing defects, and increasing throughput.

Structural Components & Adhesives

  • POLYVEST® – Hydroxy-terminated polybutadienes for high-performance sealants and adhesives in PV assembly. Maleic anhydride-functionalized grades are available, as well as mass-balanced eCO grades with identical physicochemical properties.
