The paper presents the test results to evaluate the effect of air-entraining agent addition on the intensity of reinforcement corrosion in concrete with blast-furnace slag cement in the case of simultaneous action of chloride corrosion and frost. Two groups of reinforced concrete specimens were prepared for the study. The first group of specimens included air-entraining agent addition and the other group was prepared without air-entraining agent. The blast-furnace slag cement (CEM III/A) was used for the specimens. Two parallel reinforcing rods were placed in each specimen. The specimens were subjected to 120 cycles of freezing and thawing in 3% NaCl solution to induce corrosion on the reinforcement. To determine the occurrence of the reinforcement corrosion and estimate the corrosion activity the non-destructive electrochemical galvanostatic pulse method was used. On each specimen the corrosion current density of the reinforcement was measured as well as the reinforcement stationary potential and the concrete coating resistivity, i.e. values indicating the ongoing reinforcement corrosion. Measurements were made on all specimens in two steps: before freezing and thawing cycles in 3% NaCl solution and after the cycles. The analysis of the obtained results allowed to determine differences in corrosion processes intensity on the reinforced bars in the concrete specimens depending on whether or not the air-entraining agent was added. Based on the analysis it was found that in the case of simultaneous action of chloride corrosion and frost it is advisable to use both blast-furnace slag cement and air-entraining agent. The use of only blast-furnace slag cement (although it is a chloride resistant cement), without the addition of air-entraining agent is insufficient.
