With the International Maritime Organization (IMO) reinforcing environmental regulations on the shipbuilding industry, the demand for fuels, such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), has soared. Therefore, the demand for a Liquefied Gas Carrier for such LNG and LPG also increases. Recently, CCS carrier volume has been increasing, and damage to the lower CCS panel has occurred. To withstand liquefied gas loads, the CCSs should be fabricated using a material with improved mechanical strength and thermal performance compared with the conventional material. This study proposes a polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-type foam as an alternative to commercial polyurethane foam (PUF). The former material functions as both insulation and a support structure primarily for the LNG-carrier CCS. To investigate the effectiveness of the PVC-type foam for a low-temperature liquefied gas storage system, various cryogenic tests, namely tensile, compressive, impact, and thermal conductivity, are conducted. The results illustrate that the PVC-type foam proves stronger than PUF in mechanical performance (compressive, impact) across all temperatures. In the tensile test, there are reductions in strength with PVC-type foam but it meets CCS requirements. Therefore, it can serve as insulation and improve the overall CCS mechanical strength against increased loads under cryogenic temperatures. Additionally, PVC-type foam can serve as an alternative to other materials in various cryogenic applications.
