What this shows DE's Innovation Score is 37.6/100 (top 43% 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 DE?

Each dot is one of DE’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). DE’s own 8.0 claims/patent is at or below the 14.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where DE's grants concentrate

DE Nora Permelec Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 19 CPC subclasses with 97% of grants classified under C25B (Electrolytic OR Electrophoretic Processes FOR THE Production OF Compounds OR NON-METALS; Apparatus Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, DE sits between CrowdComfort, Inc. and Drum Workshop, Inc..

DE's three-year grant acceleration

DE Nora Permelec Ltd shows 11 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.
