What this shows Air's Innovation Score is 46.4/100 (top 21% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Air?

Each dot is one of Air’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Air’s own 16.4 claims/patent is at or below the 19.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Air's grants concentrate

Air Liquide Advanced Technologies U.S. LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 29 CPC subclasses with 76.9% of grants classified under B01D (Separation). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Air sits between Asahi Yukizai Corporation and Apollo Tyres Global R&D B.V..

Air's three-year grant acceleration

Air Liquide Advanced Technologies U.S. LLC shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
