Solution

A copper rod

Explanation:

When an object is charged through friction, charges form on the two materials. As an excellent conductor, copper permits charges to travel readily, redistributes surplus charges fast, and does not hold considerable charges due to friction. As a result, friction makes it harder to charge a copper rod.
