edge boundaries each packet folded at the main grip and the peelably sealed edges are sealed the structural simplicity and integral grip of the kang applicator also provide very high storage densities that are essentially equal to the storage densities of packet applicators without grips as shown in fig3 peeling open the folded sheet of film exposes the applicator pad for use opening the kang applicator is the process of separating a first set of three peelable margins 13 14 and 15 from the set of counterpart margins 13 u2032 14 u2032 and 15 u2032 each margin other than the grip is called a u201c peelable margin u201d the u201c longitudinal u201d axis a a u2032 in fig5 of a kang applicator bisects the grip the ability to seal peel and optionally reseal the three peelable margins can be provided by the use of adhesives e g a sticky elastomer an embedded u201c zip strip u201d or other means as explained below the sheet of film is preferably manufactured to be somewhat flexible for embodiments for personal care uses to very stiff for embodiments are for abrasive uses except in the areas of the peelable margins and of a u201c hinge line u201d 18 along the base of the grip as shown in fig1 and 6 the portion of the sheet between an opening edge and the hinge line is called a u201c wing u201d 19 19 u2032 the grip 16 is the non peelably sealed margin between the hinge line 18 and the non peelable edge of the packet to enhance the ability of each wing to pivot on the hinge line the hinge line may optionally be creased or of.
