Push the Limits of Performance With Initiators
Designed for Stable EVA Encapsulates

United Initiators' crosslinking agents have produced dramatic results in the solar industry. Many in the polymer industry have historically used the same EVA encapsulation materials. Their products -- like DHBP and TBPEHC -- are used in the solar panels, and have benefited from United Initiators' organic peroxide for crosslinking. Today our initiators are considered essential to the manufacturing of EVA encapsulates, standard materials in PVMs.

United Initiators specializes in manufacturing and supplying cross-linking agents to compounders and manufacturers of EVA encapsulates. Cross-linking with organic peroxide initiators adds many product and performance advantages, chief of which is the improvement in stability of the EVA encapsulate films.

The silicon wafer is where the action is in a photovoltaic module (PVM), and it requires special protection to ensure it performs at maximum levels for an extended period of time. Stabilizing EVA encapsulates improves their performance, and stabilizes their color and cure characteristics. EVA Encapsulates are typically made with ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), which in sheet form is used to surround and protect silicon wafers and the PVMs' circuitry.

Chemical crosslinking essentially changes the performance characteristics and better stabilizes the EVA encapsulating materials. United Initiators informs our customers about the best uses of initiators and tailors organic peroxides for customers' needs. For example, TBPEHC is a tailored peroxide specifically for the EVA encapsulation.

United Initiators is the specialist in customized organic peroxides and inorganic persulfate initiators. Peroxides and other cross-linking agents are the sole focus of United Initiators' business, which is set up to supply products to solar panel manufacturers around the world.
