28. The electropolymerization requires a gold, rather than silver or copper, working electrode. The highly acidic solution used for polymerization, in combination with the relatively high applied potential, leads to a fast oxidation and dissolution of silver and copper; this dissolution prevents the growth of the polymer fibers.
