Abstract
A method for preparing a cable formed of carbon nanotubes, comprising decomposing at least one carbon precursor compound and at least one precursor compound of a catalyst on a porous substrate (43), in which method continuously: —a first gas stream comprising a precursor of a catalyst is brought into contact with a porous substrate (43); —a second gas stream comprising at least one carbon precursor is brought into contact with said porous substrate (43); —said porous substrate (43) is heated to a temperature leading to the deposition of catalyst particles and the catalytic growth of a carbon nanotube bundle, and preferably between 500° C. and 1000° C.
