<p>An object of the present invention is to provide a honeycomb structured body having a sealing material layer less likely to peel from a ceramic block even used as an exhaust gas purifying filter or as a catalyst supporting carrier for a long time, and less likely to be deformed when being molded, and a honeycomb structured body of the present invention comprises: a ceramic block formed by a plurality of pillar-shaped honeycomb fired bodies each having a large number of cells longitudinally disposed in parallel with one another with a cell wall between the cells and being combined with one another by interposing an adhesive layer, with a sealing material layer formed on a peripheral face of the ceramic block, wherein the ceramic block includes a plurality of kinds of the honeycomb fired bodies; out of outer walls of the honeycomb fired bodies, a thickness of a peripheral wall forming the peripheral face of the ceramic block is even; a shape of a cell located at an outermost periphery of the ceramic block is identical with a shape of a cell located at a place other than the outermost periphery of the ceramic block; and on the peripheral wall of the honeycomb fired body, a step is provided.</p> |
