Portfolio overview

NISSAN CHEMICAL CORPORATION has been granted 206 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing NISSAN CHEMICAL CORPORATION at rank #1,953 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 76 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in C09D (COATING COMPOSITIONS, e.g. PAINTS, VARNISHES OR LACQUERS; FILLING PASTES; CHEMICAL PAINT OR INK REMOVERS; INKS; CORRECTING FLUIDS; WOODSTAINS; PASTES OR SOLIDS FOR COLOURING OR PRINTING; USE OF MATERI). As a Foreign Corporation, NISSAN CHEMICAL CORPORATION is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 63.6/100 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 199 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window — a +2743% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. NISSAN CHEMICAL CORPORATION's 12.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 76 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark NISSAN CHEMICAL CORPORATION against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
