What this shows Solventum's Innovation Score is 73.1/100 (top 1% 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 Solventum?

Each dot is one of Solventum’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). Solventum’s own 16.4 claims/patent is at or below the 16.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

How Solventum's grant cadence moved

Grant history spans 2024–2025. Lead class A61F accounts for 35.2% of the portfolio across 73 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Baoshan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. (#2,053) and Appotronics Corporation Limited (#2,061).

Solventum's three-year grant acceleration

Solventum Intellectual Properties Company shows 88 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
