ERROR CS0264 : THE TYPE OR NAMESPACE NAME 'MATERIALS' COULD NOT BE FOUND.ARE YOU MISSING AN ASSEMBY REFERENCE

It throws this error when I tried to play My Script(AnimatedMaterials.cs):

using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine;

public class AnimatedMaterials : MonoBehaviour {

private Renderer rend;
private Materials mat;
[SerializedField]
private float offsetSpeed = 0.02f;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {

    // Get the renderer and material

    rend = GetComponent<Renderer> ();
    mat = rend.material; 



}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () { 

    float offset = Time.time * offsetSpeed; mat.SetTextureOffset ("_MainTex", new Vector2(0, offset)); 
}

}
