This question is a PhD thesis.. To broad..
Polyethylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate.. which one or what application?
There are literally thousands of kinds of plastic for even more types of applications. Each has a different formula so you would have to specify more parameters for us to get to your answer. All true "plastics" are petrochemical (oil+ stuff) based.. Other things that people refer to as plastics are resins and polymers which are a totally different chemical make up..
You will probably be surprised to know that a plastic bottle is made from the same petrochemical as the fiber we call polyester!

All plastic products, many of the materials used to make the clothes you wear, or the carpet you walk on, plus hundreds of the other products we take for granted, are made from petrochemicals. As the name implies, a main ingredient in petrochemicals is oil.
