Abstract

<jats:p>Mechanical shock of zircon based ceramic induced by cavitation erosiontesting was investigated in this study. Several parameters were followed inorder to determine level of material degradation during the cavitationerosion testing. Mass loss was taken as a conventional criterion for materialdegradation, while the level of surface degradation was evaluated by imageand thermal imaging analyses. Results show high cavitation resistance ofzircon ceramics and their suitability when vigorous cavitation erosionenvironment is expected.</jats:p>
