The degradation behavior of PrBaCo2−xCuxO5+δ (x = 0, 0.2, 0.5) under thermal stress was investigated in terms of phase formation and polarization resistance. The tetragonal phase was indexed in all compositions of PBCCux, and the secondary phase, BaO, was identified after thermal degradation in the crystal structure analysis. BaO formation is induced by the nature of perovskite to terminate the surface with AO layer. For pristine specimens, the oxygen vacancy peak ratio was increased from 57% to 60% according to the decrease in the average oxidation number of the B-site ion with Cu doping. After thermal deterioration, the oxidation number of B-site ions was increased, and the M = O bonding peak increased due to the decrease in oxygen vacancies and BaO formation according to the thermal stress. In all compositions, the electrical conductivity decreased from 1000 S/cm to 17 S/cm, and the polarization resistance increased approximately 200 times. These results are considered to be related to the increase in the oxidation number of B-site ions along with the formation of secondary phases.
