Polymer Clay is basically polymer vinyl chloride, a type of plastic. There are ground up pigments as well as a liquid plasticizer- all clay manufacturers have a "secret formula" that they won't share with the public. The main thing to remember is that when you fire the clay in the oven, you are "burning out" the plasticizer that is liquid, and all that is left is the pigment and the PVC which bonds together in the low heat.
No. Modeling clay contains oil that keeps it soft and never hardens. Polymer clay does not have an oil, it hardens when exposed to heat. polymer clays are often called "oven-bake clay"because you can make stuffs such as pendants, brooch, earings and other accesories using polymer clay by baking them in the oven. YES, i said oven. PLEASE be safe and never try to put them in the microwave.

If you live in Australia, then polymer clay is a bit expensive. You can buy clay at art and craft stores. You will defiantly find it in Spotlight though.
I am not sure what you mean about make polymer clay with cornstarch. Polymer clay is a clay already made. You can use cornstarch to avoid other objects like stamps from sticking to the clay when you make prints on clay. You just brush it on with a soft brush. It does not harm the clay, and after curing you can simply rinse it off with water.

No, Elmer's white glue is for gluing two porous materials. It will not work on many things such as modelling clay.
