    Abstract: A multiple-ply thermoplastic film which exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when stretched or elongated and then released. The thermoplastic film comprises a plurality of raised rib-like elements extending in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the thermoplastic film. The thermoplastic film further includes a plurality of web areas positioned about the plurality of raised rib-like elements. The plurality of raised rib-like elements and plurality of web areas are arranged in a complex pattern. The complex pattern, when stretched or elongated and then released, can cause areas of billowing and delamination between plies of the multiple-ply thermoplastic film. The resulting billowed and delaminated areas form billow pockets for capturing liquids that can capture liquids when one of the plies is punctured.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to thermoplastic bags having a drawtape within a hem, where the drawtape includes a deformation pattern of a plurality of ribs and a plurality of web areas. The plurality of ribs can include ribs that extend across the drawtape in a non-parallel direction with respect to the width of the drawtape (e.g., at an angle). In some instances, the non-parallel direction causes each rib to point towards a hem hole of the hem that exposes a portion of the drawtape. The plurality of ribs can further be mirrored across an axis that corresponds to a length of the drawtape. In some cases, the ribs are formed via a structural elastic-like film (SELF) process, such as a phased SELF process that leaves a portion of the drawtape without ribs.
