Abstract
An encapsulant of a photovoltaic module, intended for coating a photovoltaic cell (10), including: a copolymer of ethylene-alkyl acrylate, the melt flow index (MFI) of the copolymer being 1 g/10 min to 40 g/10 min; and a silane making up 0.1% to 0.5% of the weight of the composition; wherein the encapsulant also includes a cross-linking agent making up 0.1% to 0.5% of the weight of the composition and wherein the copolymer makes up at least 99% of the weight of the composition. Also, a use of such an encapsulant in a photovoltaic module as well as to a photovoltaic module including such an encapsulant.
