Borane Dimethylamine / Polypropylene Compatibility

I will be building a hood for a customer who will be spraying a solution of Borane Dimethylamine in water.

I'm having a hard time determining if polypropylene will be a suitable hood material.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thank you much

This response may be a little late but PP is perfectly compatible with DMAB solutions.

Personally, I don't think polypropylene is ever a suitable hood material. It's too flammable.
