The mat file extension is also commonly used for various "material" files in 3D modeling tools.
For example the popular 3ds Max 3D modeling, animation & rendering software uses its own material libraries (.mat) to define the parameters for displaying textures and lightning on model surface.
Some libraries are provided with 3ds Max, but users can create their own custom libraries.
You can import 3rd party libraries to 3ds Max using the material editor.
We do not know about any particular conversion for material libraries, but it is likely that users can create their own from existing textures in the material editor.
