Honeycomb structure

摘要

A honeycomb structure having a honeycomb unit is disclosed in which inorganic particles, an inorganic binder, and inorganic fibers are contained and plural cells extending from one end face to the other end face along a longitudinal direction are partitioned by cell walls. In the honeycomb structure, the degree of orientation of the inorganic fibers in an a-axis direction parallel to an extending direction of the cells is 0.5 or less.
