Aluminium is a bright silvery-white metal, with high tensile strength. It has a high electrical and thermal conductivity. On a weight-to-weight basis, the electrical conductivity of aluminium is twice that of copper.

Aluminium is used extensively in industry and everyday life. It forms alloys with $\mathrm{Cu}, \mathrm{Mn}, \mathrm{Mg}$, Si and $\mathrm{Zn}$. Aluminium and its alloys can be given shapes of pipe, tubes, rods, wires, plates or foils and therefore, find uses in packing, utensil making, construction, aeroplane and transportation industry.

The use of aluminium and its compounds for domestic purposes is now reduced considerably because of their toxic nature.
