A substance is corrosive if it causes a surface to corrode. This happens if it is reactive. Strong acids are corrosive to many metal surfaces. But for many other reactions of acids, it is not primarily the acidity that causes the damage, but the fact that many of the strong acids also are oxidizing agents.
