Andreas Bräuer investigates mixture heterogenity in high-pressure processes and its influence on product characteristics. As microscopes are not suitable tools for his analysis, he must use optical measuring techniques instead. These techniques make it possible to extract information about the state of the mixture at a specific place and time at both the molecular and macroscopic levels. Andreas Bräuer has developed such instruments himself in recent years.
