Abstract
A honeycomb filter includes a honeycomb structure and plugged portions. Partition walls of the honeycomb structure are made of a partition wall material including a plurality of aggregates containing silicon carbide or silicon nitride as a main component, and a binding material at a content of 15 to 35 mass %. The binding material is made of a material in which mullite particles as reinforcing particles may be dispersed in cordierite. A thermal expansion coefficient of the partition walls at 40 to 800° C. is 4.2×101/K or less. When a value of a stress applied to the partition wall material at 900° C. is normalized by the maximum value of the stress applied to the partition wall material, a percentage of a plastic deformation displacement in a total displacement at a normalized stress value of 0.9 is in a range of 0.3 to 10%.
