Applications
Trigonox® 117 Solar can be used to crosslink polymers at intermediate temperatures, with a typical crosslinking temperature of 130-140°C. Trigonox® 117 Solar is recommended for highly demanding applications e.g. as crosslinker for ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) or polyolefin elastomer (POE) films, to be finally applied in photovoltaic devices. The high purity of the product meets the stringent final industry requirements. Cure reactivity allows solar cell lamination temperatures of 135 - 170°C.
