Multifunctional hybrid porous micro‐/nanocomposite materials with hierarchical structures of soft silicone nanofilaments on hard porous glass microbeads are designed and synthesized. Such materials display selective super‐antiwetting/superwetting properties with unique mechanical, chemical, and thermal stabilities, as well as excellent antifouling properties. They are ideal materials for highly efficient separation of oil/water mixtures and emulsions, and display great advantages as carriers for organocatalysts.
