Adhesive 2-layer lamination joints of 18mass%Cr-8mass%Ni austenite stainless steel and carbon fiber reinforced polymer (18-8/CFRP) were prepared using a new adhesion method consisting of applying low dose of 0.13 MGy of homogeneous low energy electron beam irradiation (HLEBI) to connecting surfaces of the 18-8 and CFRP prior to assembly and hot-pressing in vacuum under atmospheric pressure of about 1 Pa for 2 h at 401±0.5 K. Although untreated 18-8/CFRP joint exhibited decent adhesion by hot-pressing, application of 0.13 MGy HLEBI dose apparently improved the adhesive force of peeling resistance (^oF_p) of the 18-8/CFRP joint 145% at median accumulative peeling probability (P_p=0.50) from 18.9 to 27.4 Nm⁻¹. In addition, the statistically lowest ^oF_p for safety design (F_s at P_p=0) iterated by the 3-parameter Weibull equation was raised from zero for the untreated to 5.2 Nm⁻¹ for the 0.13 MGy samples indicating increased reliability by the HLEBI. The higher adhesive strength induced by HLEBI was explained by results of XPS (X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) observations of the peeled surface of 18-8 side of lamination with and without 0.13 MGy-HLEBI. 0.13 MGy-HLEBI slightly increased the number of C=C bonds instead of slightly decreasing the numbers of C-C, C-H and O=C-O bonds near 18-8/CFRP interface. In addition, both increasing oxygen atoms and decreasing hydrogen atoms strongly attributed to bonding force at interface of epoxy of 18-8/CFRP. Since the experimental data showed the optimum HLEBI dose was about 0.13 MGy, above which at 0.13 MGy the ^oF_p began to drop, carefulness in optimization was highly recommended when applying in industry to insure safety.
