Abstract
A method for manufacturing a honeycomb structure includes molding a ceramic raw material to manufacture at least one honeycomb molded body having a plurality of cell walls to define cells. First cells and third cells are filled with plug material paste at first end portions and at third portions, respectively, to form first plugs. The at least one honeycomb molded body is fired to manufacture at least one honeycomb fired body. The at least one honeycomb fired body is cut along a plane substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction to create a second end face side of the at least one honeycomb fired body. Second end portions of second cells are filled with plug material paste. The plug material paste in the second end portions is solidified through heating to form second plugs. A honeycomb block including at least one honeycomb fired body is produced.
