A bimetallic organic framework (CuNi-MOF) was synthesized as a corrosion inhibitor using the solvothermal method. The effectiveness of the inhibitor in corrosion prevention of AISI 304 and 316 in 1N hydrochloric acid solution at room temperature was evaluated using weight loss measurements, electrochemical methods, and surface characterization techniques. The formation of CuNi-MOF protective layer on the stainless-steel surface was confirmed through Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopes (FESEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis.
