Tinfoil is a thin foil made of tin. Tinfoil appeared in the 17th century and was widely used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. However, because the texture of tinfoil is softer than that of aluminum foil, and it has the disadvantage of retaining the smell of tin in food, as the price of aluminum fell, tinfoil was replaced by aluminum foil after World War II.

Compared with some plastic wraps, aluminum foil is more durable and easy to heat, and will not produce harmful substances after heating. Aluminum foil paper has strong barrier properties.
