Claim 0:
1. A folded thermoplastic bag, comprising:
a thermoplastic film folded a plurality of times to form a film stack with a plurality of layers that are separated by air gaps;
a first additive component localized at a first position on the thermoplastic film; and
a second additive component localized at a second position on the thermoplastic film, wherein:
the second additive component is reactive with the first additive component;
the second position of the second additive component is laterally offset from the first position of the first additive component in a first direction across the thermoplastic film; and
the first position, the second position, the plurality of layers of the film stack created via the plurality of folds, and the air gaps are configured to effectively compartmentalize the first additive component and the second additive component by causing the first additive component and the second additive component to diffuse in a second direction that is across the plurality of layers and the air gaps of the film stack and perpendicular to the first direction without substantially diffusing laterally in the first direction across the thermoplastic film.
