Embodiments of the present disclosure include flexible impregnated articles, composites produced by curing such flexible impregnated article, and processes for forming flexible impregnated articles. The flexible impregnated articles, composites, and processes can be used as alternatives to articles, composites, and processes in a cured-in-place pipe rehabilitation process that include epoxy resins, thus eliminating toxicity issues associated with the use of epoxy resins. The instantly-disclosed flexible impregnated articles, composites, and processes can be particularly useful for the CIPP process in potable water pipe and pressure pipe applications. 1. A flexible impregnated article comprising: [{'sub': 2', '3, '(a) a base resin comprising at least one C-Cpolyolefin having a melting point of at least 110° C.; and'}, {'sub': 2', '3, '(b) a dispersing agent comprising at least one of a polymer having ethylene and carboxylic acid, a modifying polymer comprising at least one maleated C-Cpolyolefin wax, or combinations thereof;'}], 'a fabric material comprising a thermoplastic backing layer and a fibrous layer impregnated with an aqueous dispersion, wherein the aqueous dispersion compriseswherein the flexible impregnated article has a flexural modulus of less than 15,000 psi.2. The flexible impregnated article of claim 1 , wherein the aqueous dispersion comprises the dispersing agent comprising at least one polymer having ethylene and carboxylic acid.3. The flexible impregnated article of claim 1 , wherein the flexible impregnated article is substantially free of epoxy and carbamide material.4. The flexible impregnated article of claim 1 , wherein the base resin comprises one or more components selected from the group consisting of polyethylene copolymers having a density above about 0.930 g/cm claim 1 , polypropylene copolymers claim 1 , or combinations thereof.5. The flexible impregnated article of claim 1 , wherein the dispersing agent has a melting point less than ...
