Abstract (en)

The invention relates to an arrangement for producing an electrically-conductive composite wire in which metal is deposited onto and within a fibre composed of a multiplicity of carbon nanotubes and in which the metal deposition is produced by electrolysis. According the invention, the carbon nanotube fibre is the cathode and more than one anode (4) is employed.
