As a promising renewable resource, waste tire rubber powder has been utilized to enhance asphalt performance but it has compatibility concerns with matrix asphalt. To solve the phase separation between crumb tire rubber (CTR) and asphalt, waste cooking oil (WCO) has been successfully employed as the solvent to desulfurize crumb rubber. However, about 30 % of carbon black is wrapped in crumb rubber, which has a high recycling value. The cross-linking network structure of the crumb rubber can be loosened by waste cooking oil, and the carbon black will gradually peel off. This study desulfurizes crumb rubber with waste cooking oil at 180 ℃, and the carbon black produced by the evolution of rubber structure was separated by Soxhlet extraction. The rubber-cracked carbon black (RCCB) and the industrial carbon black N330 were added to asphalt, and the impact of the two different carbon black on the anti-deformation of asphalt was analyzed by dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). The results indicated that at the same dosage of 5 %, the carbon black separated from rubber will weaken the deformation resistance of asphalt at high temperatures, rather than improving it like N330 produced in the industry.
