a protective layer, which, in the coating-free marginal region, is disposed on the internal surface of the first pane and, in an overlap region directly adjoining the coating-free marginal region, is disposed on the metal-based functional layer,
wherein the protective layer is a transparent oxide-containing coating.
2. The glazing unit according to claim 1 , wherein the protective layer extends from the side edge of the first pane over 3 mm to 15 mm.
3. The glazing unit according to claim 1 , wherein the glazing unit comprises a circumferential pane edge and the coating-free marginal region as well as the protective layer are disposed in sections along the circumferential pane edge or the coating-free marginal region as well as the protective layer extend circumferentially along the entire circumferential pane edge.
4. The glazing unit according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent oxide-containing coating is a SiO x C y H z layer.
5. The glazing unit according to claim 4 , wherein the enamel contains glass frits and/or mineral frits and optionally at least one pigment.
6. The glazing unit according to claim 1 , wherein the protective layer is a SolGel layer, a PVD layer or a CVD layer.
7. The glazing unit according to claim 6 , wherein the protective layer is an oxide-containing coating, which contains an oxide of at least one element selected from aluminum, silicon, titanium, zinc, zirconium, or tin.
8. The glazing unit according to claim 1 , wherein the protective layer is in direct contact with the thermoplastic intermediate layer.
9. The glazing unit according to claim 1 , wherein the metal-based functional layer comprises at least one metallic layer and is formed to reflect incident infrared light.
10. The glazing unit according to claim 1 , wherein the glazing unit is a motor vehicle pane and the first pane is the outer pane and the second pane is the inner pane of the vehicle pane.
11. A method for manufacturing a glazing unit according to claim 1 , comprising:
providing a first pane, a second pane and a thermoplastic intermediate layer,
applying a metal-based functional layer to the surface of the first pane provided as an internal surface,
removing the metal-based functional layer in a marginal region extending from one side edge of the first pane over at least 1 mm to at most 5 mm,
applying a protective layer in an overlap region directly adjoining the coating-free marginal region on the metal-based functional layer and in the coating-free marginal region on the surface of the first pane provided as an internal surface,
treating the first pane at temperatures of 400° C.-700° C., and
connecting the first pane and the second pane via the thermoplastic intermediate layer, such that the internal surface of the first pane faces the thermoplastic intermediate layer.
12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the protective layer is an oxide-containing coating, which is applied by SolGel coating, PVD coating, CVD coating, plasma-enhanced PVD coating or plasma-enhanced CVD coating.
13. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the protective layer is an oxide-containing coating, which is applied by atmospheric plasma deposition.
14. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the removal of the metal-based functional layer in the coating-free marginal region is carried out by mechanical decoating, laser decoating or removal of a masking layer applied during the application of the metal-based functional layer.
15. A method comprising providing a glazing unit according to claim 1 in a vehicle of transport for traffic on land, in the air or on water.
16. The glazing unit according to claim 2 , wherein the protective layer extends from the side edge of the first pane over 5 mm to 10 mm.
