The present invention, therefore, relates to a method for preparing a thermoplastic elastomer, said method comprising:(I) mixing(A) a thermoplastic resin comprising more than 50 percent by volume of a polyester resin other than poly(butylene terephthalate), said thermoplastic resin having a softening point of 23.degree. C. to 300.degree. C.,(B) a silicone elastomer comprising(B') 100 parts by weight of a diorganopolysiloxane gum having a plasticity of at least 30 and having an average of at least 2 alkenyl groups in its molecule and, optionally,(B′) up to 200 parts by weight of a reinforcing filler, the weight ratio of said silicone elastomer (B) to said thermoplastic resin (A) being greater than 35:65 to 85:15,(C) 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a stabilizer for each 100 parts by weight of said thermoplastic resin and said silicone elastomer,(D) an organohydrido silicon compound which contains an average of at least 2 silicon-bonded hydrogen groups in its molecule and(E) a hydrosilation catalyst, components (D) and (E) being present in an amount sufficient to cure said diorganopolysiloxane (B'); and(II) dynamically curing said diorganopolysiloxane (B').
