Soft materials, unlike hard materials such as metals, have properties such as flexibility, adaptability, and high compliance. Textile is one of the soft materials that we are familiar with, and is used to make clothes, bags, towels, and masks. High-strength textiles which are composed of high-strength fibers are expected to be used as materials for soft robots because of their high strength and flexibility. However, properties of textiles depend on its weaving and knitting methods and materials and durability evaluation method for use as a material for robots has not yet been established. In this paper, we propose a durability evaluation method for using high-strength textiles as materials for robots, and evaluate its properties．
