A tissue filling, repair, sealing, or bonding substance comprising at least three components, at least two of which upon coming into fluid communication with each other react and change the chemical, structural or other properties of the substance so as to bond to adjacent native or implanted tissue. The composition is further defined as comprising a first component of a curable substance, a second component of a suitable curing agent, and a third component of an encapsulant capable of forming a barrier between the first two components and physically arranged to form an encapsulated dispersion of the form interior phase (linking agent), exterior phase (encapsulant), and continuous phase (curable substance). The encapsulant is further defined as having limited solubility in the curable substance and the curing agent and having a melting temperature between 10° C.-50° C.
