The present invention provides a catalyst composite containing mechanically fused components, a method of making the catalyst composite, and a method of using the catalyst composite in pollution reduction applications and the like. The catalyst composite includes a core and an outer shell that at least substantially covers the core, the outer shell including particles that are mechanically fused to the core and mechanically fused to each other. The size ratio of the shell particles to the outer shell particles is at least about 10: 1. [Selection figure] None |
