Abstract: Objective: To analyze the chemical affinity of 10-MDP to Y-TZP in different ratios of ethanol/acetone mixed solvent conditions. Methods: Various models were created for molecular MDP, tetragonal zirconia crystals, and MDP-Zr4O8 system. Configurations of these models were undertaken using the "Our-own N-layered integrated molecular orbital and molecular mechanics" (ONIOM) method. Interactions between MDP and Zr4O8 clusters were analyzed by calculation of their Gibbs free energy values and equilibrium constants in different solvent conditions (ethanol and acetone volume ratio were 10∶0,9∶1,8∶2,7∶3,6∶4). Results: Gibbs free energy (kJ/mol) of total reaction between MDP and Zr4O8 clusters were -204.43, -206.07, -207.72, -209.35, and -210.96 kJ/mol. The negative signs indicated that reactions could occur in different solvent conditions. Equilibrium constant of total reaction were 0.68×1036, 1.32×1036, 2.56×1036, 4.96×1036, and 9.50×1036 in different solvent conditions, suggesting that the latter was more stable. Conclusion: Acetone solvent conditions promote coordination between MDP and Y-TZP, thereby increasing the strength of the "P-O-Zr" bond.
