Abstract
A honeycomb filter includes: a honeycomb structure having porous partition walls disposed so as to surround cells, and plugging portions disposed at any one of ends on the inflow end face and the ends on the outflow end face, of cells. In a cross section perpendicular to an extending direction of the cells, a thickness T1 of the partition walls in a central portion including a center of gravity O of the cross section is 0.17 to 0.32 mm, a thickness T2 of the partition walls in an outer peripheral portion is 70 to 90% of the thickness T1, and the outer peripheral portion extends from an outer peripheral edge of the cross section of honeycomb structure by 6 to 12% of a radius r which is from the center of gravity O of the cross section to the outer peripheral edge.
Claims1
A honeycomb filter comprising:
- a honeycomb structure that is pillar-shaped and has porous partition walls disposed so as to surround a plurality of cells each of which serves as a fluid through channel extending from an inflow end face of the honeycomb structure to an outflow end face of the honeycomb structure, and
- plugging portions that are disposed at any one of ends on the inflow end face and ends on the outflow end face, of the plurality of cells, wherein,
- in a cross section perpendicular to an extending direction of the plurality of cells, the honeycomb structure includes a central portion including a center of gravity O of the cross section, and an outer peripheral portion located outside of the central portion,
- a thickness T1 of the partition walls in the central portion is 0.20 to 0.28 mm,
- a thickness T2 of the partition walls in the outer peripheral portion is 73 to 90% of the thickness T1 of the partition walls in the central portion,
- the outer peripheral portion extends from an outer peripheral edge of the cross section of honeycomb structure by 6 to 12% of a radius r which is from the center of gravity O of the cross section to the outer peripheral edge,
- wherein the honeycomb structure has a cell density of 31 to 38 cells/cm2, and
- wherein a porosity of the partition walls is 52 to 60%.
