Abstract HDPE material is found to be best suited material for the manufacturing of floating bed structure
for the solar photovoltaic (PV) system due to its light weight and excellent mechanical & chemical
resistant properties. However, the major restriction in this regard is the limited engineering
design and also the effect of UV radiations present in the natural environment that leads to the
degradation of the plastic materials. Hence, in order to improve its UV stability carbon black is
incorporated into it as UV resistant additive and hollow cubical floats of such HDPE/carbon
black composite material… More >
