The network of intermetallic phases of both aluminium alloys is characterized by means of detailed energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. In order to investigate the temperature-dependent fatigue behavior of the materials, tensile, low cycle and thermomechanical fatigue tests are performed over a wide temperature and loading range. The influence of the temperature dependence on the experimental results is discussed.encast aluminium alloymicrostructuretensile propertylow cycle fatiguethermomechanical fatigue620journal article
