Abstract
An exhaust gas filter for diesel particulates, comprising a row of a plurality of channels of honeycomb structure of porous sintered ceramic fiber composite sheet, the ceramic fiber composite sheet being produced by a paper-forming method from a slurry of alumino-silicate fiber and fire clay. The honeycomb structure of the ceramic fiber composite sheet is formed by stacking plane sheets and corrugated sheets one atop the other. The filter exhibits low pressure drop yet highly efficient operation by having a bulk density of the ceramic fiber composite sheet in the range of 0.1 g/cm.sup.3 to 0.8 g/cm.sup.3.
