| abstract |
A honeycomb structure includes honeycomb fired bodies, adhesive layers, and edge members. Each of the honeycomb fired bodies has a first end face, a second end face, and side faces. The adhesive layers are disposed on the side faces to bond the honeycomb fired bodies to each other. Each of the side faces has a first side that is one side of one of the first end face and the second end face. The edge members are disposed on the side faces and including an inorganic material. Each of the edge members has a substantially quadrangular pillar shape with a second side that has substantially a same width as the first side and that is disposed such that the second side is in a vicinity of one of the first end face and the second end face. |
