A surface force apparatus has been used to investigate the drainage of a viscosity improver lubricant. The characterization of the VI confined interface has been performed. Surprisingly, dynamical measurements enlighten a significant negative value of the immobile layer thickness. This result is discussed in terms of occurrence of slip at the wall, liquid-solid interface wettability, surface roughness and cleanliness, and friction experiments. Consequently, an interface molecular organization modelling is proposed based on polymer depletion near the solid-liquid interface.
