A. Figoli, M. Bonchio, and co‐workers demonstrate in article 1500034 sparkling oxygen bubbles that are evolved by a self‐cleaning porous matrix and provide a very efficient strategy against the irreversible fouling of polymeric surfaces. This is based on the novel design of catalytic pores embedding the oxygen evolving Ru 4 (SiW 10 ) 2 polyoxometalate. Surface exposure to aqueous H 2 O 2 under mild temperature and pressure conditions induce the mechanical removal of solid foulant particle up to 88%.
