               Re:     Registration  Statement  on  Form  S-8
                       --------------------------------------
Gentlemen:

     I  am  counsel to Material Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the
"Corporation"),  in  connection  with  preparing  and  filing  an Amendment to a
Registration  Statement  on  Form  S-8  (the  "Registration Statement") with the
Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  (the "Commission"), registering under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), an additional 900,000 shares  of
the  Corporation's  Common  Stock, $.001 par value, (the "Shares") issuable upon
the  exercise  of  options  and  options  to  purchase these 900,000 Shares (the
"Options")  authorized  to  be granted under the Corporation's 1998 Stock Option
Plan  (the  "Plan").

     For  purposes  of  this opinion I have examined the Registration Statement,
the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and its by-laws, and
such  documents, records, agreements, proceedings, and legal matters as I deemed
necessary  to examine.  With respect to any documents or other corporate records
which  I  examined,  I  assumed  the  genuineness  of all signatures on, and the
authenticity of, all documents submitted as originals, and the conformity to the
original  documents  submitted  as  copies.

     Based  upon my examination and subject to the qualifications stated herein,
I  am  of  the  opinion  that:

     1.  The  Corporation  is  duly  organized,  validly  existing,  and in good
standing  under  the  laws  of  the  State  of  Delaware.

     2.  The Shares included in the Registration Statement to be issued upon the
exercise  of  the  Options will be duly authorized and validly issued, and fully
paid  and non-assessable when the Options shall have been properly exercised and
the  exercise  price  shall have been paid for the Shares in accordance with the
terms  of  the  Plan.

     I am a member of the California Bar and do not hold myself out as an expert
concerning,  or qualified to render opinions with respect to any laws other than
the  California law, the Federal laws of the United States, and Delaware General
Corporation  Law.


                                   Sincerely,

                                   /S/ C. Timothy Smoot
