Abstract: 

An enormous development is experimented on the porous materials. The porous was considered a defect on solid materials some years ago, but right now, this defect is an advantage, based on the properties obtained from micro, meso and macroporous materials, and their possible applications on a medical field. The feasibility to use forming agents to control the density and size of the pores, and the possibility to improve the porous properties through adding functional groups or nanoparticles on the porous surface allows the application of porous materials in many areas, especially on medicine.
