Does hydrogen peroxide react with polypropylene?

I have a specimen that I believe to by either polypropylene or some type of paper/cardboard. I was planning on using hydrogen peroxide to test which it might be. Any ideas on whether or not this will work? The sample is only about the size of the head of a pin.

How concentrated is your peroxide? We've been doing a bunch of testing with peroxide here at the labs, and have seen no effects/reactions with polypropylene at all.
