Development and Performance Evaluation of GO–ZnO/PU Hybrid Nanocomposite Coatings for Improved Optical Transmission, Cooling, and Self-Cleaning in PV SystemsBy Sandeep Sharma, K. Sudha, Nidhi Gupta, Bharat Singh, G. Sivagurunathan
Abstract: The performance of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules with time is affected by thermal heating, dust buildup, and exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light; as a result, the power loss increases rapidly during the use condition. In this study, a polyurethane (PU) nanocomposite, fabricated with graphene oxide and zinc oxide (GO–ZnO), is invented and examined. Improvements in heat management, light transmission, and dirt resistance are planned for PV glass surfaces. The nanocomposite …
