Description
Etimex 750781 TPU Solar Panel Encapsulation Film Roll 778mm x 150m x 0.46mm
The Etimex 750781 is a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film used as an encapsulant layer in solar panel lamination. This is a full, unused roll — 150 meters long and 778mm wide — at a 0.46mm film thickness. The roll was manufactured on June 15, 2009 and has been in storage since. The outer protective wrap is intact. Buyers should confirm the material remains within its usable shelf life for their specific lamination process before purchasing.

Applications
TPU encapsulation film is used in the manufacture of solar photovoltaic modules as a protective interlayer that bonds the solar cells to the front glass or backsheet during the lamination process. Unlike the more common EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) encapsulants, TPU films offer good flexibility, UV stability, and moisture resistance, making them well suited for thin-film and flexible solar module constructions. This particular roll was originally supplied to SoloPower Inc., a manufacturer of flexible CIGS thin-film solar panels, which points to use in flexible or lightweight module lamination processes. TPU encapsulants are processed in vacuum laminators at controlled temperature and pressure cycles. Because polymer encapsulants have a defined shelf life — typically 1–2 years from manufacture when stored under recommended conditions — buyers working with aged rolls should test a sample for adhesion, clarity, and cross-linking performance before committing to full production use.
This Etimex 750781 TPU Solar Panel Encapsulation Film is new and unused — it has never been unwound or cut — but was manufactured on June 15, 2009 and has been in storage since. Like most specialty polymer films, TPU encapsulant has a shelf life, and this roll may be at or past its original expiration date. The outer protective plastic wrap is intact as shown in the photos, and the roll label is fully legible and confirms all dimensions. Buyers should evaluate whether the material remains suitable for their lamination process before committing to purchase — we make no claims about current film chemistry or adhesion performance after extended storage.
