Scanning acoustic microscopy analysis of the mechanical properties of polymeric components in photovoltaic modules

Abstract The characterization of mechanical properties of polymeric backsheet and encapsulation foils of photovoltaic (PV) modules usually involves destructive techniques, such as dynamic mechanical analysis and tensile testing. In this article, we validate the scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) as...
