Portfolio overview

Leibniz-institut FUER Polymerforschung Dresden E.v. has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Leibniz-institut FUER Polymerforschung Dresden E.v. at rank #18,831 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 27 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in C08J (WORKING-UP; GENERAL PROCESSES OF COMPOUNDING; AFTER-TREATMENT NOT COVERED BY SUBCLASSES C08B, C08C, C08F, C08G or C08H). As a Foreign Corporation, Leibniz-institut FUER Polymerforschung Dresden E.v. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 45.4/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 5 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Leibniz-institut FUER Polymerforschung Dresden E.v.'s 18.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 27 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Leibniz-institut FUER Polymerforschung Dresden E.v. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Guides to patent portfolio analysis

How to use this portfolio

Leibniz-institut's 15 grants land it in the top 23% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Leibniz-institut ranks #18,831 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in C08J - see who else leads that technology area. C08J leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
