NOVELTY - The protective material (10) has an inorganic layer in a weather-resistance film (1), a resin layer (21), and one surface of a base material. A water-vapor-permeation rate is below 0.1 g/m2. A moisture proof film (3) is laminated on a protective material structure layer. The resin layer is formed from the thermoplastic resin composition containing ethylene-type resin. The ratio of maximal width of protective material structure layers other than a weather-resistance film to width of the weather-resistance film is smaller than one.    USE - Protective material of roll-shaped article, for solar cell of solar cell module (all claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The protective material is excellent in a flexibility and dampproofness. The performance decrement of the solar cell is decreased. The improvement of durability of the solar cell is improved. The permeation of the moisture content from the exposure surface of film by laminating the moisture proof film is prevented. The residual strain is reduced. The efficiency improvement of solar cell module manufacture is attained.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The ethylene-type resin is an ethylene- alkyl acrylate copolymer. The thickness of the base material is 25-250 micrometer. The surface of the inorganic layer side and the weather-resistance film side is made. The thickness of the back surface film is 60 micrometers or more. The width of the back surface film is larger than the width of the moisture proof film. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for roll-shaped article that laminates sealing material layer on opposite side to weather-resistance film. The bending length measured by preset conditions in one portion of the location corresponding to the location where a weather-resistance film protrudes among the surfaces of the roll-shaped article is 70 mm or less. A sample width 20mm and 120 mm in length is collected. A weight 5 kg in weight is mounted on the portion on the base of a sample. The length which hangs down from base is measured. An edge portion of the element protruding from the base of a sample bends, and makes value length. The sample of 100mm four-ways-direction is collected. A sample is installed on the glass plate of thickness 20mm. The steel ball 0.5 g in weight is mounted on the center portion of the sample by diameter 5mm. The 2-kg load is applied from on a steel ball. The bending length of cover sheet is two or less.
