In this work the influence of selected elements (Sn, Pb, Bi and Sb) on microstructure and mechanical properties of commercial AlSi8Cu2 alloy at four different temperatures (20, 100, 200, 300 and 350 ° C) was studied. The influence of individual elements and their combinations was studied. The content of elements in the range of 0.1-1 wt% was studied. Significant influence of these elements was found from 0.5% content especially at elevated temperatures.
