Held in the heart of Europe's solar valley cluster in Leipzig, CMT's 2nd Polymer Apps in PV brings leading industry experts of material technologists, polymer research scientists and photovoltaic module producers to deliberate the progress and developments in polymers applicable to photovoltaic.

Snapshot of Key Sessions:

• New frame concepts for building integrated systems using polyurethanes
• Findings on the mechanical properties of encapsulants on the stresses of PV modules
• Advantages of PV backsheet from bio-based polyamide resins derived from castor beans
• Optimization in backsheet design using various polymers and correlation to module performance
• Advancements in extrusion technogy for the production of EVA film
• Application and integration of organic solar cells into building facades by Konarka
• Novel interconnection techniques using conductive adhesives
• Meeting temperature, weather and safety standards: Halogen-free polyamide for PV components
