Diamon-Fusion® Nanotechnology

DFI’s chemical reaction bonds to form an ultra-thin protective layer of optically clear material which makes the surface significantly easier to clean and resistant to weathering. The method is done at nano-scale levels, which is a length scale ranging from approximately 1 to 100 nanometers (1 nanometer is 1 billionth of a meter).

Step One
A chemical fills in the microscopic ridges.
Step Two
This bonding substrate is then capped and sealed, enhancing surface smoothness.


Did you know?

Annual losses in efficiency due to soiling range from 1.5% to 7% annually, with some records as high as 20% depending on the location of the PV plant.


Annual Cost of Scheduled Cleaning for Solar Panels according to the Electric Power Research Institute’s 2010 white paper on PV O&M best practices.

Clean less, increase efficiency.

Solar array owners around the globe have discovered Diamon-Fusion®’s unique products to help restore, maintain and protect surfaces. Surfaces treated with Diamon-Fusion® become water and oil repellent resulting in less frequent cleanings and greater solar efficiency.

Cleaning costs.

According to the Electric Power Research Institute, scheduled cleaning of solar panels costs an average of $25/kW-yr. When Diamon-Fusion®’s proprietary coating is applied, that cost can be reduced by up to 90%.
