Due to their interesting mechanical behavior (large strain, dissipative behavior ...) and their diversity, elastomers are more and more used in industry. In service conditions, rubber components are subjected to complex loadings. Therefore, understanding phenomena induced by multiaxial fatigue constitutes an important issue in the industrial conception's step. The material used in this work is a polychloroprene rubber, provided by Huchinson society and dedicated to silent-block's applications. This elastomer possess a dissipative component at large strains. This behavior is determined following two approaches : an analytic method, implying a simple calculation at a local point of a cylinder and a finite elements analysis implemented with ANSYS software. An experimental investigation in multiaxial fatigue is then realized to test the dissipated energy density as a multiaxial fatigue criterion. This parameter obtained interesting results. Haigh diagrams has been built to point out crystallization phenomenon. Post-mortem analyses has been carried out with a scanning electronic microscope and exposes morphological specificities related to the material's sollicitation.
