Stainless steel cladding and Na bonding of an unirradiated partial assembly from the Hallam (Nebraska) reactor were successfully dissolved electrolytically in nitric acid. Zirconium oxide sludge produced during the electrolytic disintegration of Zircaloy was continuously removed from the dissolver. A nonconducting basket of laminated glass fabric and silicone resin used to hold fuel assemblies during electrolytic dissolving failed after 100 hours. These tests were made in a continuing program to confirm the capacity of the 5000-amp dissolver for power fuels clad with stainless steel or Zircaloy. (auth)
