Abstract

A motor vehicle pane made from thin insulating glass comprises two thin individual glass panes, which are connected to one another by a spacer frame made from a plastic strand containing a moisture-absorbing means. Along the lower edge area which remains in the door bay, the moisture absorption surface of the plastic strand is enlarged by another plastic strand, which is thinner than the air space between the two panes. Alternatively, the plastic strand can be shaped in a meandering path so as to increase the surface area facing the air space.
