Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy was applied for real-time identification of different types of plastics. The plasma emission spectra of polypropylene, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene, polystyrene, and polyethylene terephthalate, the most commonly used plastics in black household appliances, were studied. It was confirmed that the C/H spectral line intensity ratio varies depending on the type of plastics. Aliphatic and aromatic polymers were discriminated owing to the presence of delocalized C-C bonds in the aromatic fragments, revealing a correlation between the chemical structure and emission of the C-2 Swan bands. Plastics containing a heteroatom could be selectively detected by monitoring the emission line characteristics of the heteroatom. Four types of plastics were successfully identified despite their similar chemical structure.
