(→Trivia: Amazing work finding that reference, Axey+! There's a thread later in that post where Peter notes that cerrobend was trademarked but other names, including bendalloy, weren't (and I can't find any record of bendalloy being trademarked either) and Brandon says bendalloy "may be the winner," so I think that's likely the story) |

When a bendalloy bubble and a [[cadmium]] bubble occur in the same place, their effects cancel out resulting in no change whilst still burning the metals used.{{book ref|mb4|2}}{{book ref|mb4|12}} The time bubble created by a Slider is approximately five to fifteen feet across and is smaller than that possible while burning cadmium.{{book ref|mb7|49}} Careful examination may reveal the edge of the bubble, where air appears to shimmer. As long as some part of a person is inside the speed bubble, they will be included in its effect.{{book ref|mb7|49}}
When a time bubble is created, the area of the bubble stays stationary
The amount of Investiture required is proportional to the size of the bubble and the factor of compression.{{wob ref|15849}}{{wob ref|16014}}
If a Slider flares bendalloy when forming a time bubble, time inside the bubble is sped up to a great degree, likely related to a larger amount of Investiture being used at one time, therefore leading to an increase in the compression factor.{{wob ref|15849}}{{wob ref|16014}} The size and speed of the bubble is pretty much determined when it's first formed,{{wob ref|117}} except more skilled users can actively change the size and shape, and reduce the interval between the creation of new bubbles.{{book ref|mb7|8}}{{book ref|mb7|71}} When one ingests a very large amount of bendalloy and burns [[duralumin]], time is sped up by an extreme degree, and the bubble appears to solidify like crystal, and cracks as it fades. Light appears to act strangely outside of the bubble.{{book ref|mb7|71}}

A speed bubble can be popped by [[aluminum]].{{wob ref|4297}}

* In an original mockup of the complete Table of Allomantic Metals, this metal was named cerrobend.{{url ref|url=https://mistborn.livejournal.com/111534.html|text=Poster Near Final Version|site=Brandon's LiveJournal|date=2008-12-12}}{{url ref|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100107231629/https://www.brandonsanderson.com/graphics/mb_table_v13.jpg|text=MB Table v13|site=Brandon's website|date=2008-12-12}} However, the word cerrobend was a trademarked

* The time dilation effect of bendalloy was originally defined as compressing 2 minutes of time into 15 seconds without flaring the metal. This was changed with the leatherbound release of Alloy of Law to leave the exact compression ratio to be ambiguous.{{book ref|mb4|12}} <!--This reference is also where the original version gave the 120:15 second ratio-->
