Polyester aka PET and Mylar can't be easily glued, though stuff is glued to them. You'll find tape splices or glue on bottles can be peeled off.

PTFE aka Teflon can't be glued at all.

Polycarbonate doesn't glue easily.

Epoxy is good to glue non-plastics!
This is a great list, but I still don't know which kind of plastic I'm dealing with.
