The acid copolymer comprises 10-25 wt % of repeat units from the alpha,beta-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid. The acid copolymer composition contains the silane coupling agent (0.01-5 wt.%) and organic peroxide (0.01-10 wt.%). Preferred Components: The article comprises a solar cell component comprising one or many solar cells. The article further comprises: a second polymeric layer that is positioned next to the solar cell component on the opposite side from (I), where the second polymeric layer comprises a polymeric composition comprising poly(vinyl acetal), ethylene vinyl acetate, polyurethane, polyvinylchloride, polyethylenes, polyolefin block elastomers, ethylene acrylate ester copolymers, copolymer of alpha olefin and alpha,beta-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and their ionomers, silicone elastomers or epoxy resins; an incident layer that is formed of a transparent material and serves as an outer layer at the light-receiving side of the assembly; and a backing layer that is formed of glass, a plastic film or sheet, or a metal film or sheet and serves as an outer layer at the back side of the assembly. Preferred Method: The step of lamination is conducted by subjecting the assembly to heat and, optionally, vacuum. The additional layer is a glass sheet and the interlayer is laminated to the glass sheet.
