Item Category defines the category of item in inventory.

Electronic Material.
2) wheat grain can be part of product cateory Food item.
Item Catalog is used in iProcurement. Its a list of items
(may not belong to same class like Electonic material, Food
item). Same catalog can have both items in it (as per eg
above)

Answer / mohammed sameer
Item Category: Its a combination of Group, Country and Brand and it is assigned while creating Item Master//like for example..group may be Chicken...country may be Idia...and brand may be MKR..so now we know that this item chicken is from india and is manufactured by MKR this attribute is attacked to the Item Category
Item Catalog:Though widely not used in implementation this feature allows to group items on one type under one ,its like building a information catalog of items..for report purposes for the management....not much to say on this :)
