EXHAUST GAS PURIFICATION FILTER

Abstract:

To provide an exhaust gas purification filter having a high capability of collecting particulate matter. The exhaust gas purification filter includes a filter base material having a wall flow structure and an exhaust gas purification catalyst. A wash coating amount of the exhaust gas purification catalyst ranges from 60 to 110 g/L or less. When the exhaust gas purification filter is divided into an upstream part, a middle part, and a downstream part, and average values of catalyst area ratios of the exhaust gas purification catalyst supported by surfaces of the partition walls are acquired at predetermined locations in cells on an inflow side and cells on an outflow side, a minimum value, among the average values, is 28% or greater. A maximum value, among sizes of pores in the partition walls after the exhaust gas purification catalyst is supported, is 14.6 .mu.m or less.
