Abstract
Transformation-toughened material bodies such as transformation-toughened zirconia may be strengthened by grit blasting the body surface. Grit blasting of the surface with a grit material such as alumina or silicon carbide can result in flexural strength increases of at least about 10-20% compared to the body prior to blasting. The method of the invention provides strength increases comparable or better than those resulting from surface grinding and may be used for a broader variety of body shapes.
