Abstract
A honeycomb structured body including a plurality of cells that are placed in parallel with one another in a longitudinal direction with a cell wall therebetween, and a sealing portion sealing either one of the end portions of the cells. The honeycomb structured body has a porosity of at least about 70% and at most about 95% and having a length about 0.2 to about 0.9 times a diameter thereof, where the length is in the longitudinal direction of the honeycomb structured body, and the diameter is of a cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the honeycomb structured body.
Claims21
