From the synthesis of silica spheres the well‐known Stöber method has been adapted for the preparation of monodisperse polymer spheres from resorcinol–formaldehyde (RF) resin and of carbon “Stöber” spheres. In their Communication on page 5947 ff. S. Z. Qiao, G. Q. (Max) Lu, and co‐workers report this low‐cost procedure, which provides a tunable particle size ranging from 200 to 1000 nm. It is expected that the Stöber method can be adapted to prepare Stöber spheres with different compositions.
