What this shows Momentive's Innovation Score is 46.0/100 (top 22% 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 Momentive?

Each dot is one of Momentive’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). Momentive’s own 12.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Momentive's grants concentrate

Momentive Performance Materials Japan LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 28 CPC subclasses with 86.8% of grants classified under C08G (Macromolecular Compounds Obtained Otherwise Than BY Reactions Only Involving Unsaturated Carbon-to-carbon Bonds). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Momentive sits between Medit Corp. and Marvin Lumber and Cedar Company, LLC.

Momentive's three-year grant acceleration

Momentive Performance Materials Japan LLC shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
