Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a diene elastomer/polylactide copolymer, the weight percentage of polylactide being between 10% and 45% by weight, relative to the weight of the copolymer, characterized in that lactide, an elastomer functionalized by at least one group bearing at least one function capable of initiating a ring-opening polymerization of the lactide and a catalytic system are introduced into an extruder (A).

Abstract: An elastomeric mixture comprises at least: one diene elastomer/polylactide copolymer A1 comprising a polylactide block PLLA or PDLA, where appropriate one or more other polylactide blocks which are all PLLA when the first block is PLLA or which are all PDLA when the first block is PDLA, the mass percentage of the polylactide block(s) being between 10% and 50% by weight relative to the weight of the copolymer A1, and a diene elastomer/polylactide copolymer B1 the mass percentage of the polylactide block(s) in said copolymer B1 being between 10% and 50% by weight relative to the weight of the copolymer B1, or a polylactide B2, or a mixture of said copolymer B1 and of said polylactide B2, the names PLLA and PDLA denoting a chain consisting of units of formula (I) —[CH(CH3)—C(O)—O]— (I), of which at least 70% by weight are, respectively, of L and D configuration.
