If iodine can move through a plastic bag why can't you breathe through a plastic bag?

Iodine molecules are much smaller than oxygen molecules, so they can pass through small openings in the plastic bag. However, the plastic bag is impermeable to air, so you cannot get enough oxygen by breathing through it. This can lead to a lack of oxygen and potentially suffocation.


Where do plastic bags come from?

The typically green, orange or white plastic bags you see everywhere are generally made from polyethylene plastic. Polyethylene is a cheap and useful material made from petroleum. Once the plastic is made it is put into a large machine that essentially creates a very long bubble/tube of liquid polyethylene. Technically this is done by passing the plastic through an annular die. The bubble is blown up to the size (diameter) required for the particular bag type. When the walls of the bubble cool, the tube of plastic is collected onto a roll. The rolls of material are run through another machine that puts off bag lengths of cooled plastic tube, seals one end with heat, then cuts the sealled bag free for folding and packaging.
