As someone who works in recycling and is involved in a family run business in UK, we also sell to Europe, PP is our number 1 product and most sought after, 2nd would HDPE and the rest is a mixture. We actually rarely do PET. By the way, each one of these types has its own grades, for example there are PP plastics that you wouldn't mix together as its harder to sell because of the difference in MFI. Just some insight for you.

I don't even work in anything recycling or relevant to this video but just having the info allows me to be aware of what kinds of plastics are "bad" (meaning harder to recycle and barely even recycles) and which kinds are good and also that the idea of recycling plastics is to use the same plastic for as many things as you can, presumably the highly recyclable ones, so that it can all flow consistently and the recycling process can function optimally.

Such a great video. Easy to follow and easy to understand. I work in recyceling, and this made it so much more interesting to learn more about plastic. Thank you
well done...It would be interesting to hear you speak on how individual properties of these plastics are affected when combined for a prodution . For example LDPE & HDPE are used in production of plastic bags..which other plastics can be combined and cannot combined with technical reasons 😁
The only way to effectively sort mixed plastics is to grind them all up together and then separate them by density striation in a controlled density bath. Much more efficient that paying people to pick through the garbage. Grind it all up first. Remove one group at a time by gradually increasing the density of your liquid bath medium. You can also apply centrifugal separation as needed. ..
What's the reason they wouldn't except my plastic bottle s from rubbing alcohol & hydrogen peroxide both are #2. HDPE? I'm in the san diego ca. Area if you possibly know of a place. Thank you.

The most common type of bottle cap is the plastic cap. Plastic bottle caps are made of polyethylene terephthalate. It is a thermoplastic polymer resin that is a part of the polyester family. This kind of plastic is widely used in beverage and food containers. Depending on the processing method, this material can appear transparent, opaque or white. This type of plastic is usually has the PET abbreviation. It is a different plastic than what the bottle itself is made of. Metal bottle caps are made of steel.
Starting a job as inspector of plastic sorting plants tomorrow, they gave me some documentation on the 7 categories of plastic, but it was kinda vague. This video helped a lot, thanks!
I'm wondering ....I have a front loader washer ..there is an exterior( hard ridged plastic) and inner tub (stainless steel).. I trying to create a seal between these two plastic tubs ...(gasket) is no longer manufactured. ...any idea as to what plastic type such a tub is ? Best guess ?
I have bought a water bottle anf it is PP .is it reusable or use and throw?when exposed to sunlight does it change any of its chemical properties?what if i put hotwatwer into it? Pls reply
I'm trying to pursue a career in plastic recycling. Can someone recommend a university to do my master's in Plastic recycling? I have been trying for days. But none provide specifically plastic recycling.
This video was awesome thank you very much. I am curious though, if a person were to collect the correctly sorted plastics (for example 100 type #1 water bottles) is there a market for buyers of these? Outside of municipalities offering around 5 cents per bottle. Im curious if a person does the hard work of sorting plastics based on their number will anyone pay for that?
Only way to recycle PS is to distill it into naphtha. It should become naphtha right of the bat if distilled properly considering the fact that PS has more hydrogen and carbon than any other polymer.
They can be any type of material. Depends on the application. Some are your basic polymers with additives or are manufactured a specific way to have better properties suited for the application. We make "medical grade" high impact polystyrene shells for first response pregnancy tests at my place of employment. Common material, but what makes it medical grade are the manufacturing procedures.
2:07 did you just call spray 9 window cleaner?😂🤣 dude I use that stuff at my job and it takes grease off every surface just the spray and wipe of a rag she’s clean as a whistle!
So... why do most PET bottles come with HDPE caps that each leaves a ring that is slightly harder/tedious to remove? Now even some yogurt drinks/fruit drinks are packaged with the mouth part made up of HDPE. I had to use a saw or heated metal to break it apart before recycling.
Good question. In an ideal world they should be the same and not sure why they are not. However, you should not need to separate the cap and bottle. This is because HDPE and PET is usually separated in a sink-float tank. PET is less dense then HDPE so the separation process is fairly easy once the entire bottle is grinded down.
You have done a very informative video with detailed and useful information. Also, done in a very professional manner, without rushing to have viewers attention in a short span of time. Excellent topic and delivery. Well done and keep it up. 👏 👍🤌

Hi，friend! whether you have need of plastic raw material?we are a manufacture which can provide a variety of plastic raw material ,modified plastic, melt-blown material,titanium dioxide in china,
I've started picking up trash in my town (litter), I'm going to start recycling the plastics and turning my recycled materials into DIY products. Excess material I plan on melting down into a block if possible.
Hey Pvt Shumway ? Does that mean you have the golden gateway to heat the plastic to a certain mould and sell it off In a bulk large enough qauinity size if so How come it's so easy? Great stuff Merry Xmas
anyone know a strong ridged plastic that i can get in about 3/8 thick and attach with 2 screws on 1 end and hold the weight of my hand and mouse and mousepad like a table top connected to 8020 extruded aluminum im thinking about using aluminum plate but i prefer working with a plastic if i can get similar results????? im building a gaming chair with flight simulator cockpit and the keyboard and mouse pad must be very ridged i really dont want to cut aluminum but it may be the only option

Hi Sir,
Do you sell HDPE in India as well?
Hello sir can we talk?
Good remark. Thanks
this should be a standard lecture in all schools
Very informative thanks for sharing
As a plastic composite R&D company we found this video greatly informative. Thanks. Our world is all about polymers! For sure!
This video deserves much, much, more traffic. This was a very informational video and I've learned a lot in such a short video. Thanks a lot!

Very good information, Thank you!!!
Thank you for the information
Thankyou this useful for my exam revision
Thanks dude 😁
what exam you giving bro
Very interesting. I have been working in a facility with injection molding. Glad to know how it’s made.
Where do cellophane and XLPE (cross linked polyethylene) fit in?
This was a good presentation. I really like the break down of the plastic types, and especially the examples of each plastic type he showed.
well done...It would be interesting to hear you speak on how individual properties of these plastics are affected when combined for a prodution . For example LDPE & HDPE are used in production of plastic bags..which other plastics can be combined and cannot combined with technical reasons 😁
very helpful👍
Dt GCSE student here, your video was very informing and helpfull with my understanding of plastics, will be saving for future use ^^
hmm.. i would like to see a video on solvents used to recycle each type of plastic
What type of plastic that contains silicon dioxide?
Quality content. 🥹
Hello brother I am from Bangladesh , I learned a lot from you . ! Want to work with you further to explore more !😊🙋♂️
What do you think about the micro plastics people consume and what that means for human health?
The only way to effectively sort mixed plastics is to grind them all up together and then separate them by density striation in a controlled density bath.
Much more efficient that paying people to pick through the garbage. Grind it all up first. Remove one group at a time by gradually increasing the density of your liquid bath medium. You can also apply centrifugal separation as needed.

very informative, thank you.
Great dissertation! Thanks.
This was very helpful for my class! Thank you so so so much!
a very useful video love it thanks helps a lot with my research
What's the reason they wouldn't except my plastic bottle s from rubbing alcohol & hydrogen peroxide both are #2. HDPE? I'm in the san diego ca. Area if you possibly know of a place. Thank you.
Perfect explanation sir
Thank you very much
Well explained! Thank you. I would definately use it for my classes if you are ok with it.
Yes please do! - Tristan
Loved Your Presentation Bro. Highly Recommend it. Thank You !!
Thank you!
Thank you very much for this clarity on different types of plastics. My question is about shower puffs. I want to know what type of plastic they are?
this video is extremely helpful and informative . Thank you so much
That was a very clear and informative explanation. Thanks!

Hi, thank you for your nformation. Which kind of university degree study these product? Engineer or chemistry or else?
And what about ABS plastic? Pro and cons? Use?
Where does ABS fall in the classification? Would it be “other”?
Which plastic is the screw on tops of soda bottles?

That guy is wrong, it's mostly either PP or HDPE.
Man, you’re amazing how you explain is great keep going from turkey 🇹🇷
I know polystyrene sort of melts in acetone. What's left is a goo.
That goo happens to act practically like napalm.
Starting a job as inspector of plastic sorting plants tomorrow, they gave me some documentation on the 7 categories of plastic, but it was kinda vague. This video helped a lot, thanks!
Thank you for you detail example pictures and explations....
a great explanation , thnx.
well done!
Very much informative and inspiring
Thank you!
Amazing information sir😍😍
Great stuff Thanks

Can't we bleach plastic and turn it into transparent plastic seeds
Clear, thanks good job
Woow great information 😘

Wht abt Tetra Pak
Great 🎉
Thank bro ❤
Thanks for the video ❤️👍🇺🇲🇨🇦
What is Epoxy
Forget it now bro, js focus on your exam. No one gonna reply now ig.
Good video
One type of pastic wasn't mentioned.....the trust of humans.
can you make a video for recycling all 7 plastic types using 3D-Printing technology?
Where does medical grade plastic fall?
They can be any type of material. Depends on the application. Some are your basic polymers with additives or are manufactured a specific way to have better properties suited for the application.
We make "medical grade" high impact polystyrene shells for first response pregnancy tests at my place of employment. Common material, but what makes it medical grade are the manufacturing procedures.

What about a Delrin Plastic which was used and maybe still used in making plastic sprinklers?
Medical intravenous fluid lines are made of what type of plastic?
I can tell you that the connectors and adapters are made from polycarbonate, which have BPA in them! BE AFRAID!!!!!!!!
The OIL companies are responsible for this mess. They should pay for the clean-up.
Yes, not you and me

Does anybody know which kind of plastic is used to make the large animal carriers?
It probably varies. Most likely though it will be #5 or PP. You should be able to check on the bottom
What category is Plastisol in?
Plastisol is number 3 plastic (PVC). See more info here:

Useful now I just need to find someone who sells a 10mmx1000mmx1000mm sheet of HDPE or polpropylene near me
I've started picking up trash in my town (litter), I'm going to start recycling the plastics and turning my recycled materials into DIY products. Excess material I plan on melting down into a block if possible.
Hey Pvt Shumway ? Does that mean you have the golden gateway to heat the plastic to a certain mould and sell it off
In a bulk large enough qauinity size if so
How come it's so easy? Great stuff
Merry Xmas
anyone know a strong ridged plastic that i can get in about 3/8 thick and attach with 2 screws on 1 end and hold the weight of my hand and mouse and mousepad like a table top connected to 8020 extruded aluminum im thinking about using aluminum plate but i prefer working with a plastic if i can get similar results????? im building a gaming chair with flight simulator cockpit and the keyboard and mouse pad must be very ridged i really dont want to cut aluminum but it may be the only option
good vidio bro.. please teech one by one..
