    Not using the supplied shaders, but in Shader Mixer the Variable brick does give you access to the Time variable.

    Of course, I don't know exactly what you are doing, but when I need something to disappear, I change the scale to zero.

    You can animate the opacity using Casual's MatAnim script:

    It's a bit easier than learning Shader Mixer :) - although Shader Mixer is an invaluable and fun skill in the long term.
