The composition is intended to be delivered into the body through a small-bore needle, cannula, or catheter and to a tissue site for the purpose of augmenting the tissue site and surrounding area, thereby correcting a defect, filling a void, or strengthening the support structures of the tissue. The particles are a hard, metallic substance and are carbon-coated.
