The behavior of various PZT compositions under shock loading shows that obtaining high energy densities requires ceramics having a high remanent polarization and a low permittivity, which release their energy by a ferroelectric → antiferroelectric phase transition. Few “hard” PZT ceramics have these properties. The results are presented and discussed.
