This is somewhat incorrect.

Depending on the type of loctite and the type of plastic it can craze and crack plastics. The general suggestion is to test the loctite product on a small, non critical, portion of the plastic to see if there is a reaction.

And if you don't believe me, try Loctite 496 on a piece of polycarbonate
