A method of fabricating a composite component comprising the steps of : loading a preform (5) into a component forming environment (3), filling the environment with a solvent carrying a catalyst material in solution or suspension, draining this liquid (6) from the mould thereby leaving a residue of the catalyst material on the perform and/or the interior surface of the forming environment, heating the forming environment and subsequently or concurrently introducing a carbonaceous gas (7) under such conditions as to grow a carbon nanotube structure on the preform and/or the forming environment surfaces, removing the carbonaceous gas, and introducing a liquid resin material (9) into the forming environment whereby the resin disperses through the preform and carbon nanotube structure thereby forming the finished composite component once the resin is cured or set.

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un composant composite qui comprend les étapes consistant : à charger une préforme (5) dans un environnement de formation de composant (3); à remplir l'environnement par un solvant portant une matière catalytique en solution ou en suspension; à drainer ce liquide (6) à partir du moule, ce qui laisse un résidu de la matière catalytique sur la préforme et/ou sur la surface intérieure de l'environnement de formation; à chauffer l'environnement de formation et à introduire ultérieurement ou simultanément un gaz carboné (7) dans des conditions propices à la croissance d'une structure de nanotubes de carbone sur la préforme et/ou sur les surfaces de l'environnement de formation; à éliminer le gaz carboné; et à introduire une matière de résine liquide (9) dans l'environnement de formation, ladite résine se dispersant à travers la préforme et la structure de nanotubes de carbone afin de former le composant composite fini après son durcissement ou sa prise.
