Cheese , twirl

Bessemer, Boron

A quick one, this. I shall come up with something a bit more tenuous later.

OK. Here is the link: Both of these words start with the letter B.

OK, a more tenuous link.

In steel-making, the Bessemer process is a means to remove impurities from iron (the chief component of steel) through oxidation. In electronics, the chief components of semi-conductors is silicon. In order to become a semi-conductor, an impurity needs to be added to change its electronic property and conductivity. In the case of silicon, this can be Boron.
