Vinny,

I could be wrong, but I am not aware of any weight belts or harnesses made 
from polypropylene.  I believe they are all made from nylon.  There are 
differing grades, and some are softer than others.  If you want to see if a 
particular piece of webbing is made of poly, immerse it in fresh water.  If 
it is polypropylene, it will float.  If it does not float it is not poly.

Good diving,
