The 2011 International Solar Photovoltaic Conference and Exhibition (SNEC) opened in Shanghai today. As a leading supplier of chemical material solutions, Dow Chemical participated in this exhibition and demonstrated its comprehensive material solutions for the photovoltaic industry (Dow Booth No.: Hall E5, Stand 210). From polysilicon production to silicon ingot/silicon cutting, from battery manufacturing to solar module production and system installation, Dow offers chemicals that improve performance and reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing processes.

Dow exhibited solutions include:

• AMBERLYSTTM catalyst for the production of monosilane and polysilicon.

• DOWTHERMTM Heat Transfer Fluid collects, transfers, and stores heat while meeting high temperature stability requirements for polysilicon purification processes.

• Dow ion exchange resin for the purification of trichlorosilane (TCS) to produce the highest quality polysilicon.

• Dow polyglycol ether wafer cutting fluid enables higher quality wafer cutting.

• ENLIGHTTM cleaning, texturing, imaging, and metallization solutions improve solar cell manufacturing performance.

• Ethylcellulose ETHOCELTM Photovoltaic Conductive Slurry Adhesive, also a premium rheology modifier for screen printing, with high purity and excellent batch-to-batch quality stability.

• ADCOTETM and MOR-FREETM adhesives are suitable for the manufacture of modular components for long-term stability and higher environmental performance.

• ENLIGHTTM Polyolefin Encapsulant film acts as a protective sealant, helping to reduce the overall cost of the module system, increasing efficiency and reliability.

• Dow's membranes and ion exchange resins are used in recycling, reuse, and treatment of cutting fluids in photovoltaic cell manufacturing processes.

• EnlightTM metal recycling solutions optimize the EnlightTM metallization process to reduce the impact of flushing water on the environment during the production process.

Solar cell efficiency is the primary measure of device performance. The higher the efficiency of the battery, the lower the cost, thus enabling the large-scale application of renewable alternative energy sources. Dow's Electronic Materials Division's ENLIGHTTM metallization, imaging, cleaning and texturing materials can improve solar cell efficiency and reduce solar cell manufacturing costs. As a leader in electroplating front plate metallization process, Dow products have been successfully used in commercial battery production.

Dow's innovation in photovoltaics is not limited to the above products. As a global leader in thermal solutions, DOWTHERMTM Thermal Conductivity Fluids from Dow Polyglycol Ether, Surfactants and Fluids Division is not only suitable for the purification of photovoltaic polysilicon but also for the solar thermal power (CSP) industry. Dow's fluid products provide a comprehensive solution for high and low temperature environments and ensure excellent thermal stability.

Dow Polyethylene Glycol Ether, Surfactant, and Fluid Divisions are also working on a new type of cutting fluid for cutting special silicon wafers.

The new cutting fluid has the properties of dispersing abrasives and absorbing heat, and has better lubricity. The new product can improve the stability and quality of cutting and reduce the consumption of abrasives. At the same time, the division is developing innovative and efficient fluid solutions for emerging technologies such as diamond wire cutting.

As a leading global chemical company, Dow is committed to supporting sustainable development and energy efficiency. Solar energy is one of the most important clean energy in the world today. Dow is also investing more efforts in the solar energy industry to support the continuous development of solar energy technology and continue to establish a model of sustainable development.
