The irreversible conversion of mechanical to electrical energy in ferroelectric ceramics of the Pb(Zr1-x Tix)O3 type with a considerable proportion of zirconium is studied. The depolarization of the ceramics is studied for shock compressions between 5 and 100 kbar. The maximum electrical energy obtained at about 20 kbar, is of the order of 1.8 J/cm3 with a Pb(Zr0.965Ti0.035)O3 + 1% Nb2O5. The energy conversion efficiency decreases when the shock intensity exceeds 25 kbar.
