Abstract
In an exhaust gas purification filter, a partition wall has communicating pores. Each communicating pore has a surface opening on the gas-inflow-side surface and a plurality of portions, each portion having a diameter being reduced and then increased from the surface opening, one of the portions, whose diameter is the smallest, being defined as an inlet neck portion. As viewed in cross section in a thickness direction of the partition wall, the surface opening of each communication pore has a diameter defined as a surface opening diameter, the inlet neck portion of each communication pore has a diameter defined as an inlet neck diameter. The inlet neck diameter is smaller than the surface opening diameter, and an average value of the inlet neck diameters is 15 μm or less. A surface opening ratio of the communicating pores in plan view of the gas-inflow-side partition wall surface is 40% or more.
