In the track view, scroll on the left , click material, select your material, you can control there everything there is available in your material.

 

Hope this helps:)

I`ve done that but I can`t set the keys?why?for ex I want a mat to come transparent from frame 40 to frame 60, how do I do that?

In the track view just control the I think they'r called tangents positive above 0 will give you solid effect, negative below 0 will give you the transparency. You can even draw your own curve and edit it,

the window looks scary at first but after messing with it it's quite simple.

You can also do it right in your material editor, just that track view gives you better control.
