Fimo and Cernit are both polymer clays, but have small differences. You can get Fimo clay which is a bit tough to condition, but holds find details well. Then you have Fimo Soft, which is a softer and more malleable clay. It is easy to condition, but may sometimes become a bit too soft to hold details, like required in cane work.
Cernit is even softer than Fimo soft, and the colors are slightly translucent, something that makes it very popular with doll makers. It is considered to have superb strength after curing.

For Fimo Polymer clay and Sculpey Polymer clay should be baked in the oven on a baking sheet covered with foil or baking parchment for about 20 minutes to 1 hour at 130 C / 275 F Or...5-3 hours at around 220, and let it cool in the oven...:) "The information is on the back of the packages" Fimo & Sculpey clay requires an oven, heated to 265 degrees, and bake clay for 30 minutes. And yes, use foil or baking parchment with old cookie sheet. (use the cookie sheet only for clay, never for food)
Once fired and hardened neither polymer clays (Fimo, Sculpey) or natural clays are biodegradable, as witness the many pottery remains still solid after thousands of years.
my opinion is that if your looking for good clay to make charms or keychains i advise you to use sculpy or fimo Soft dont get original its too hard but both Sculpy and Fimo are name brand and are really good. You can buy them at michaels or any other art supply store and remember to wash your hands and wipe down the surface your working on before you use any light colors because they can easily catch lint and dirt so be careful, Hope i helped Bye ;]~
