Abstract
A photovoltaic device is adhesively mounted to a support structure such as a roofing member or building panel by the use of a body of foamed adhesive. The foamed adhesive is resilient and accommodates differences in the thermal expansion and contraction of materials comprising the photovoltaic device and the structure upon which it is mounted and thereby prevents delamination and other stress-related damage to the photovoltaic installation. The adhesive may comprise a contact adhesive, a hot melt adhesive, or a curable adhesive. Further disclosed are methods for affixing photovoltaic systems to building structures and the like through the use of foamed adhesives.
