A hardcoat composition comprises (a) an epoxy silane compound, (b) a reactive silicone additive and (c) photo-acid generator. The reactive silicone additive has one of the following general structures:formula (I) or X-SiR1R2-(O-SiR1R2)n-X (Formula 2) wherein: R1, R2, and R3 are independently a C1-C6 alkyl group or aromatic group with or without substitution; X is a curable group selected from -OH, -OR, -OC(0)R, -OSiY^Y3, -CHzCHrL-SiYVY3, and -C(O)(R)3, wherein: L is a divalent linkage group; Y1, Y2, and Y3 are independently selected from a C1-C6 alkyl group, and a curable group selected from -OH, -OC(O)R, and -OR, with the proviso that at least one of Y1, Y2, and Y3 is a curable group; R is a C1-C4 alkyl group; and n is at least 2 and m is at least 1, provided that the weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the reactive silicone additive is no more than 4200.
