Basics

The Recycling of Plastics
Given that they can chemically degrade due to various mechanisms, or become dirty this is complex, but in most cases it is still very achievable
The main reason for the low amount of recycling is due to creating new plastic from Fossil Fuel feedstocks is cheaper, along with some other aspects like unclear collection/labeling systems

Most common plastics - Polyester (PET), polyethylene, and PVC. [1]. Recycling symbols - [2].
Why plastics warp when 3d printing - [3]. About Glass Transition temperature - [4]
