The purpose of the application of the heat is to ensure that the coating adheres to the surface.
These gas bubbles can grow and merge, causing delamination, which is observed as the separation of layers within the solar cell structure. The delamination caused by corrosion compromises the integrity of the solar cell panel and can lead to reduced electrical conductivity and decreased light absorption.
