If anti freeze or coolant gets on an accessory belt it could cause the belt to be noisy, so avoid this whenever possible. If coolant gets on the belt, rinse it off with water as soon as possible preferably before running the vehicle. Avoid spraying water into and on the alternator. After rinsing, run the vehicle and allow the water to dry off, it may squeal momemtarily. The belt should be fine, however sometimes the belt will be noisy still. I do not recommend belt dressing because many times too much of this is applied, the results normally don't last and a tacky residue is left on the pulleys, which has to be cleaned off prior to installing a replacement belt. As a last resort before replacing the belt to eleminate noise try a small amount of "Sil-Glyde" gel, not the spray. Apply it only while the vehicle is not running, put it on the grooved side of the belt and run the vehicle. If the squeak returns the belt may need replacement.
