Hierarchical nanoporous bioactive glass ultrathin fibers with different pore diameters from 1.5‐nm micropores up to 65‐nm macropores are synthesized using P123–PEO co‐templates and an electrospinning technique (see image). Experiments demonstrate that the prepared bioactive glass fibers are highly homogenous and bioactive and their nanopores can control drug release well.
