Polypropylene is the only plastic out there that will withstand long term exposure to acetone. Polyethylene will normally stand up long enough to do gun soaking jobs, but not recommended for long term storage. PVC will unzip the fastest, since the vinyl chloride component is easily attacked bu strong solvents. Remember that most PVC & ABS joint cleaners contain acetone and if you have ever used them, they will melt the surface of the pipe simply by a wiping action.
Don't forget glass and metal, since both are permanently immune to the affects of acetone.
