The way to understand it is that Corrosive Projection is reducing the armor by 30%, while Abating Link is removing 45% of the armor. One is technically a multiplier while the other is technically subtraction, so they don't stack like you might expect them too.

If the enemy has 1000 armor, and you JUST equip Corrosive Projection, the Enemy will have 700 armor.

If the enemy has 1000 armor, and you JUST equip Abating Link, the Enemy will have 550 armor.

If the enemy has 1000 armor, and you equip Corrosive Projection & Abating Link the enemy will first have their armor reduced to 700, and then 45% of the 700 removed for a remaining 315 armor.

If the enemy has 1000 armor, and you equip Corrosive Projection & Abating Link with 220% Power Strength, the enemy will first have their armor reduced to 700, and then 99% of the 700 removed for a remaining 7 armor.

Granted 7 armor is practically the same as 0 armor in regards to how quickly you kill the enemy. It might even be a bit more depending on your elemental loadout.
