Processes of polymerizing polyolefins and synthesis of activators. The polymerization processes include polymerizing one or more (C-C)α-olefin monomers in the presence of at least one catalyst and at least one co-catalyst to produce a polyolefin. The co-catalyst includes a cation and an anion, in which the anion has a structure having a vinyl terminated alkene, one boron atom or more than one boron atoms, and at least four halogen atoms. The anion of the co-catalysts is incorporated into a polymer chain of the polyolefin.

Alkene functionalized activators and their use in electrical applications

A kit comprising one or more of the following one or more solar modules (); one of more connectors (); and one or more integrated flashing pieces (), wherein the one or more solar modules, the one or more connectors, and the one or more integrated flashing pieces include a first buss () and a second buss (); wherein the one or more solar modules, the one or more connectors, the one or more integrated flashing pieces, or a combination thereof include a capacitor between the first buss and the second buss so that the capacitor blocks direct current from passing through the first buss, the second buss, or both and allows an alternating: current signal, an alternating voltage signal or both to pass trough the first buss, the second buss, or both so that a discontinuity, partial discontinuity, or continuity of the one more solar modules, the one or more, connectors, the one or more integrated flashing pieces, or a combination of connections therebetween are detectable when the one or more solar modules, the one or more connectors, and the one or more integrated flashing pieces are electrically connected.

Apparatus and method for locating a discontinuity in a solar array

The present invention is premised upon an improved photovoltaic device ('PVD') and method of use, more particularly to an improved photovoltaic device with an integral locator and electrical terminal mechanism for transferring current to or from the improved photovoltaic device and the use as a system.

Photovoltaic device and method

The present invention is premised upon a connector device and method that can more easily electrically connect a plurality of PV devices or photovoltaic system components and/or locate these devices/components upon a building structure. It also may optionally provide some additional sub-components (e.g. at least one bypass diode and/or an indicator means) and may enhance the serviceability of the device.
