The core performance parameters and technical requirements of photovoltaic glass.

Nov 12, 2025

Photovoltaic glass is an indispensable key auxiliary material in the solar photovoltaic industry chain. It has a high technological content and its performance directly affects the power generation efficiency and long-term reliability of the entire photovoltaic system. This article introduces the core performance parameters and technical requirements of photovoltaic glass.
1. Light transmittance
A. This is the most important indicator. At present, the mainstream products require a light transmittance of over 93.5%.
B. It is achieved by using ultra-clear glass sheets and anti-reflection coating technology. The coating layer utilizes the principle of light interference to reduce the reflection loss on the glass surface.
2. Mechanical strength:
A. It must be capable of withstanding wind pressure, snow load and hail impact.
B. Usually, the strength of glass is enhanced through tempering treatment, making its bending resistance and impact resistance 3 to 5 times that of ordinary glass.
3. Weather resistance and durability
A. Anti-ultraviolet aging: Prevent delamination or yellowing of the bonding layer with EVA film under long-term ultraviolet radiation.
B. Corrosion resistance: It can resist the erosion of moisture, salt spray and acidic substances in the atmosphere.
C. Thermal stability: It can withstand drastic temperature changes from -40℃ to +85℃ without cracking.
4. Thickness and Lightweight:
The mainstream thicknesses are 2.0mm, 2.5mm and 3.2mm. With technological advancements, thinner glass is being developed to achieve lightweight components and reduce transportation and installation costs.
