Surface modification is the process of altering physical or chemical characteristics of the work-piece surface. In this paper, various surface modification techniques have been discussed. One of the most appropriate surface modification technique is electrical discharge coating (EDC), in which the hard material is made to deposit onto the work-piece in a state of reverse polarity condition. Different mechanisms of carrying out EDC are presented. Deliberate material transfer takes place by using electrodes or by dispersant of metal powders into the di-electric. A detailed review of the literature on the theme of surface modification through the EDC has been conducted. In last, a framework for conducting surface modification by EDC employing using density electrodes of same material is presented.
