Abstract

See full text

The present application is directed to a method of providing a coating to a surface of an optical element of a solar energy conversion system. The method comprises contacting the surface of the optical element with an aqueous coating composition comprising water and silica nanoparticles dispersed in the water, and drying the coating composition to form a nanoparticle coating. The coating composition has a pH of the composition of 5 or higher. The coating composition comprises an aqueous continuous liquid phase; silica nanoparticles having a volume average particle diameter of 150 nanometers or less dispersed in the aqueous continuous liquid phase; and an organic polymer binder.
