Portfolio overview

Ionic Materials, Inc. has been granted 24 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing Ionic Materials, Inc. at #12,494 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 25.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01M (PROCESSES OR MEANS, e.g. BATTERIES, FOR THE DIRECT CONVERSION OF CHEMICAL ENERGY INTO ELECTRICAL ENERGY). As a US Corporation, Ionic Materials, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Ionic sits between Improbable Worlds Limited (24 patents, rank #12,493) and JIIN HAUR Industrial Co., Ltd. (24 patents, rank #12,501) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.3/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 21 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +600% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.

Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Ionic Materials, Inc.'s 25.1 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 17 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
