The disclosed ceramic honeycomb filter comprises a ceramic honeycomb structural body having a multiplicity of parallel channels extending therethrough, selected channels being sealed at one ends thereof while the remainder of the channels being sealed at opposite ends thereof in such a manner that, as dust-containing gas flows therethrough from said one ends to said opposite ends, the gas passes through walls between adjacent channels where the dust particles are collected. The ceramic honeycomb structural body has a coefficient of thermal expansion aA of 0 to 8.0×10-6/°C. for 40°C. to 800°C., and the sealing material of the channels at said ends thereof has a coefficient of thermal expansion aB which is in the following range for 40°C. to 800°C. The relationship of the coefficients of thermal expansion aA and aB are such that │aA-aB│≤3.5×10-6/°C., and preferably │aA-aB│≤2.5×10-6/°C.

A ceramic honeycomb filter comprising a ceramic honeycomb structural body with a multiplicity of parallel channels extending therethrough, said channels being defined by a plurality of interlaced thin gas filtering porous partition walls between adjacent channels, said channels being selectively sealed by sealant in such a manner that said channels include a first group comprising inlet passages open at one end of the channels and closed at the other end, a second group comprising outlet passages closed at said one end of the channels and open at the other, wherein said inlet and outlet passages are arranged side by side such that each said inlet and outlet passages are defined by said porous partition walls so as to form a filtering surface for gas flow between said adjacent channels, said ceramic honeycomb structural body having a coefficient of thermal expansion aA of 0 to 8.0×10-6/°C. for 40°C. to 800°C., said sealant having a coefficient of thermal expansion aB for 40°C. to 800°C. in a range satisfying a relationship of │aA-aB│≤3.5×10-6/°C.
