Abstract
In an embodiment, a flexible bag is provided and includes opposing flexible films composed of a polymeric material. The flexible films define a common peripheral edge. The flexible bag includes a microcapillary strip located between the opposing flexible films and extending along a portion of the common peripheral edge. A peripheral seal extends along at least a portion of the common peripheral edge. The peripheral seal seals the microcapillary strip between the opposing flexible films. The peripheral seal forms a closed compartment. The flexible bag includes an amount of a flowable solid particulate material (FSPM) in the storage compartment.
