  • The objective of this paper is to evaluate the asphalt mixture performance with pyrolyzed carbon black(CBP) and air -cooled iron blast furnace slag. Marshall mix design was performed to determine the optimum binder content, The optimum binder content ranged from 6.3 percent to 7.75 percent. Dynamic creep testing was carried out using mixtures at the optimum binder content. Based on the test results, the use of pyrolyzed carbon black and slag in the asphalt pavement showed a positive result, such as the increase of Marshall stability, the decrease of the strain rate and the decrease in the mix stiffness rate at high temperature(5$0^{\circ}C$) and 137.9 kPa confinement. Within the limits of this research. it was concluded that pyrolyzed carbon black as an additive and slag as a coarse aggregate could be used to produce an asphalt paving mixture that has good stability, stiffness, and rutting resistance.
