Conducting patent analysis involves several steps:
Data Collection: Gather patents related to catalysis from various databases such as USPTO, EPO, and WIPO. Classification: Categorize patents based on type of catalyst, application area, and technological domain. Bibliometric Analysis: Analyze patent bibliometric data such as filing trends, geographic distribution, and assignee information. Content Analysis: Examine the technical content of patents to identify key innovations, methodologies, and applications. Network Analysis: Study the network of inventors, assignees, and citations to understand collaborations and influence.
