Exhaust gas purification filter
An exhaust gas purification filter is used so as to support a NO X purification catalyst. The exhaust gas purification filter includes a honeycomb structure portion and a plug portion. The honeycomb structure portion includes a partition wall and cells. Numerous pores are formed in the partition wall. The cells are partitioned by the partition walls and form a flow path for an exhaust gas. The plug portion alternately seals an inflow end surface or an outflow end surface for the exhaust gas in the cells. The partition wall has a gas permeability coefficient that is equal to or greater than 0.35×10 −12 m 2 , a pore volume ratio of pore diameters of 9 μm or less that is equal to or less than 25%, and an average pore diameter that is equal to or greater than 12 μm.
