Zusammenfassung:	A float valve assembly is configured to be positioned within in a central bore of a tubular string disposed in a wellbore drilled into a subterranean zone. The float valve assembly includes a valve main body and a plunger, and the plunger is biased by a spring towards a closed position and is configured to open in response to a fluid pressure in a downhole direction. The surface of the plunger main body includes a plurality of substantially flat lateral faces forming a pyramid. A hydrophilic nano-coating comprising particles with sizes of between 1 and 100 nanometers is disposed on at least a portion of the surface of the plunger main body.
