What type of plastic is used for led columns in sets like these?

Most likely frosted Plexiglass Acrylic.
 
For a cheap and easy to find option, you can use Fluorescent Diffusion panels. They have several different textures, and are built to defuse light across the panel.
 
Depending on venue requirements, Coroplast makes a flame resistant version too. Love the stuff. Lots of design info on church stage decoration sites, etc.
 
We just did some columns, used 3/4 ply on back 2ft wide and 16ft tall, painted white. Then arched the Coroplast . We put an elation par zoom inside the top and bottom. It looked great with all sorts of color effects.
