Abstract:
A laminate for electronic devices contains a first outer layer of a layer comprising an organic solvent soluble and/or water dispersible, crosslinkable amorphous fluoropolymers, at least one mid-layer selected from at least one of the group consisting of (i) poly(chlorotrifluoro ethylene); (ii) polymeric film coated on one or both surfaces with liquid crystal polymer; (iii) liquid crystal polymers; (iv) metal foil; and (v) polyester, and a second outer layer wherein the second outer layer comprises pigmented EVA and wherein the second outer layer is substantially opaque to ultraviolet light. The laminate is particularly useful for use as a backing sheet for photovoltaic modules.
