What this shows Evonik's Innovation Score is 41.9/100 (top 32% 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 Evonik?

Each dot is one of Evonik’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). Evonik’s own 23.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Evonik's grants concentrate

Evonik Fibres GMBH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under B01D (Separation). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Evonik sits between ESS-Help, Inc. and Earthsystems Technologies, Inc..

Evonik's three-year grant acceleration

Evonik Fibres GMBH shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
