A base composition is provided. The base composition includes a binder, a
reactive monomer, and an anti-haze additive. The binder may include an
optically transmissive polymer. The reactive monomer may be both curable
and volatile. The binder and the reactive monomer have differing
refractive indices relative to each other. A cured layer formed from the
base composition may be formed into an article have particular
properties. A method of making the layer is provided.
