Photovoltaic module, photovoltaic encapsulant and method of producing a photovoltaic module

The invention relates to a photovoltaic module (1) comprising - at least one photoactive component (2), such as a solar cell or a thin film, and - an encapsulant (3) covering the at least one photoactive component (2) on at least one side, wherein the encapsulant (3) is formed from a material having at a first temperature a first complex viscosity and at a second temperature a second complex viscosity, wherein the first complex viscosity is larger than the second complex viscosity and wherein the first temperature is between 70°C and 100°C and the second temperature is between 120°C and 160°C, characterized in that the first complex viscosity amounts to at least 100.000 Pa·s, preferably to at least 200.000 Pa·s.
