DECLARE @x int
select @X = COUNT(DISTINCT Corrosive) from MyTable where UOM = 'en' AND Corrosive = 'Corrosive'
DECLARE @y int
select @y = COUNT(DISTINCT Corrosive) from MyTable where UOM = 'en' AND Corrosive = 'Non-Corrosive'

DECLARE @z int
SELECT @z = CASE
WHEN @x = 0 AND @y = 0 THEN 0 /*When None exist*/
WHEN @x = 1 AND @y = 0 THEN 1 /*When Corrosive Exists*/
WHEN @x = 0 AND @y = 1 THEN 2 /*When Non-Corrosive Exists*/
WHEN @x = 1 AND @y = 1 THEN 3 /*When Both Exist*/
END

PRINT @z"
