Abstract

The degradation of reflector materials for concentrating solar thermal applications is analysed. Corrosion of their metallic reflective layer is considered a major problem in facilities which are located near industrial sites, where reduced sulphur gases may be present. Accelerated ageing tests were performed to study the influence of H2S on the corrosion of two types of silvered glass reflectors and one aluminium reflector. Different degradation patterns were found for silvered glass reflectors, whereas aluminium reflectors did not corrode in the presence of the sulphurous gas. Therefore, industrial pollution caused by this type of gas may decrease the solar collectors’ performance.
