Read this doco
http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/Renderer-material.html?from=Material
"Modifying material will change the material for this object only. If the material is used by any other renderers, this will clone the shared material and start using it from now on. Important note: This function automatically instantiates the materials and makes them unique to this renderer."
Further ... memory management ..
Note that if you are programming in a sophisticated manner, then: "It is your responsibility to destroy the materials when the game object is being destroyed. Resources. UnloadUnusedAssets also destroys the materials but it is usually only called when loading a new level." Generally you won't have to worry about that but bear it in mind if you have a highly dynamic game.
hope it helps
