Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An exhaust gas purification filter includes a plurality of cells each extending from an inflow end face to an outflow end face, a porous partition wall forming the cells in a partitioned manner, inflow-side sealing parts sealing openings on an inflow end face side of outflow cells where the exhaust gas flows out, and outflow-side sealing parts sealing openings on an outflow end face side of inflow cells where the exhaust gas flows in. Each of the inflow-side sealing parts has a porosity of less than 60%. The partition wall has a porosity of 60% or more and 70% or less. Assuming a pore size, at which cumulative pore volume is 50% in pore size distribution of the inflow-side sealing parts, is d50 Pin , and a pore size, at which cumulative pore volume is 50% in pore size distribution of the partition wall, is d50 B , the pore size d50 Pin is less than 18 μm, and the pore size d50 B is 18 μm or more and 25 μm or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An exhaust gas purification filter, comprising: a plurality of cells each extending from an inflow end face, through which exhaust gas flows in, to an outflow end face, through which the exhaust gas flows out; a porous partition wall forming the cells in a partitioned manner; inflow-side sealing parts sealing openings on a side of the inflow end face of outflow cells among the cells, each outflow cell allowing outflow of the exhaust gas from the outflow cell; and outflow-side sealing parts sealing openings on a side of the outflow end face of inflow cells among the cells, each inflow cell allowing inflow of the exhaust gas to the inflow cell, wherein an average of sealing lengths of the inflow-side sealing parts is larger than an average of sealing lengths of the outflow-side sealing parts, each of the inflow-side sealing parts has a porosity of less than 60%, the partition wall has a porosity of 60% or more and 70% or less, assuming a pore size, at which cumulative pore volume is 50 % in pore size distribution of the inflow-side sealing parts, is d50 Pin , and a pore size, at which cumulative pore volume is 50% in pore size distribution of the partition wall, is d50 B , the pore size d50 Pin of the inflow-side sealing part is less than 18 μm, and the pore size d50 B of the partition wall is 18 μm or more and 25 μm or less. 2. The exhaust gas purification filter according to claim 1 , wherein a total sealing length which is defined as the sum of the average of sealing lengths of the inflow-side sealing parts and the average of sealing lengths of the outflow-side sealing parts is 9 mm or less. 3. The exhaust gas purification filter according to claim 1 , wherein the exhaust gas purification filter is configured to be disposed and used in an exhaust passage of a gasoline engine. 4. The exhaust gas purification filter according to claim 2 , wherein the exhaust gas purification filter is configured to be disposed and used in an exhaust passage of a gasoline engine. 5. The exhaust gas purification filter according to claim 1 , wherein each of the inflow-side sealing parts has a porosity of 50% or more. 6. The exhaust gas purification filter according to claim 1 , wherein a density of each of the inflow-side sealing parts is larger than a density of the partition wall. 7. The exhaust gas purification filter according to claim 2 , wherein the total sealing length is 8 mm or less. 8. The exhaust gas purification filter according to claim 2 , wherein the total sealing length is 2.5 mm or more and 8 mm or less.
