The present invention provides a thermoformable and optically clear hard coat comprising a polyacrylate resin and 5 wt. % or less of inorganic nanoparticles with an average particle size of 100 nm or less in diameter based on total weight of resin solid. The polyacrylate resin is derived from polymerizing and curing ultraviolet (UV) curing acrylic compositions for use in making thermoformable hard coats for curved optical displays comprising (a) from 9 to 70 wt. %, based on the total weight of monomer solids, of an aliphatic tetrafunctional (meth)acrylate monomer or an aliphatic pentafunctional (meth)acrylate monomer; (b) from 3 to 30 wt. %, based on the total weight of monomer solids, of one or more one (meth)acrylate monomer containing an isocyanurate group; (c) from 5 to 55 wt. %, based on the total weight of monomer solids, of one or more aliphatic urethane (meth)acrylate functional oligomer having from 6 to 24 (meth)acrylate groups; (d) from 2 to 10 wt. %, based on total monomer solids, of one or more UV radical initiators; (e) from 10 to 30 wt. %, based on the total weight of (a), (b), (c), and (d), of one or more sulfur-containing polyol (meth)acrylates; and (f) one or more organic solvents for the monomer composition.
