Aluminium foil is aluminium prepared in thin metal leaves, with a thickness less than 0.2 millimetres (8 mils), thinner gauges down to 6 µm (0.2 mils) are also commonly used.[1] In the USA, foils are commonly gauged in mils. Standard household foil is typically 0.022 millimetres (0.9 mils) thick and heavy duty household foil is typically 0.033 millimetres (1 mil).The foil is pliable, and can be readily bent or wrapped around objects. Thin foils are fragile and are sometimes laminated to other materials such as plastics or paper to make them more useful. Aluminium foil supplanted tin foil in the mid 20th century.

Why does the paper get black when you grease aluminum baking pans?
Aluminum oxidizes when it is in contact with the air. The faint darkening is not usually noticeable, but when using paper towels or other paper to grease the pans, some oxidation from the aluminum rubs off onto the paper. The aluminum in baking pans also is reactive, which means it has a chemical reaction when exposed to acid (such as lemon or tomato juice), which can cause further discoloration as well as a metallic taste in the food.
