So it's alright to have such a large number of monomers? I remember reading somewhere that the longest polymer chain is only around 1,000,000 units, is this wrong or am I remembering?
Also is this book good for someone with basic chemistry background?

My background is in a different field (mechanical engineering) so I never really dealt with chemistry topics like this (besides in general chemistry)
Polymer Physics by Michael Rubinstein is my go to for basic polymer anything. Its chapters on networks and gels are a good introduction.
Fair warning though: Oxford's page binding methods are awful. I've seen 4 or 5 of these textbooks, 2-3 years old each, with pages falling out everywhere. But the subject matter is great!
