BioSolar, Inc., the engineers of revolutionary bio-polymers (materials based on renewable plant sources and suitable for standardized manufacturing processes which are quickly gaining ground against more costly materials) announced this morning plans to offer two different BioBacksheets for crystalline silicon (c-Si) Photovoltaic (PV) module manufacturers.

The sort of breakthrough bio-polymers BSRC is known for include a perfect, high-efficiency, low-cost alternative for making standard components in solar cells, and this recent announcement adds to the growing list of remarkable bio-based backsheet products – made from renewable resources as opposed to toxic materials found in the widely used petroleum-based backsheets – which BSRC now offers solar manufacturers.

The two types of BioBacksheets designed specifically to meet current and future needs of potential customers are: a multilayer BioBacksheet-C for “conventional” applications; and a monolayer BioBacksheet for premium applications.

This continued development of a variety of grades of backsheet affirms BSRC’s commitment to providing

Reaching for cost advantages in one industry can often lead to advantages in another. In many instances, when these advantages are found, an entirely new paradigm is formed for new products and potential industry bases. Finding these new product and industry bases is the way to be in on the proverbial “ground floor” of extreme profits.

BioSolar Inc., a solar-cell module component material manufacturer, is currently introducing plant-based bio “plastic” materials to solar module manufacturers for assessment. The company’s products are said to meet all durability requirements and offer significantly lower costs then current petroleum-based components.

The company’s product line is not limited to solar applications, although it has chosen the solar module application as its market of choice. Bio-based “plastic” materials are a large breakthrough for many applications that use plastic parts, as they apparently offer cost benefits while maintaining required tolerances. As petroleum prices continue to flirt with record levels,
