Using domestic zeolite from Igroš as row material for ceramic samples for application in condition of cavitation erosion. Samples based on talc with 15 % of zeolite, from Igroš, sintered at 1200oC were used in this investigation. The ultrasonic vibratory cavitation set up with stacionary specimen was used. Mass loss was measured and degradation level of the samples using image analysis and Young modulus of elasticity. Obtained results showed good resistance of the sample to the cavitation erosion, which give the possibility for possible future application of ceramic samples based on talc and yeolite in different conditions where cavitation erosion is expected.
