Cyclic would work though.
Not quite. The amount of DR ablated by Corrosion only depends on basic damage rolled, not how much your DR protects against. Any Corrosive Attack dealing 30 basic damage or more drops you to 0 DR. Sure, you still have 6 points of absorption to fix *some* of your DR, but the next hit is going to remove what you recovered.

The Cosmic you should be buying is a +50% that can be called your choice of Round Down, Ignore Fractions, or Drop Fractions.
