Believe it's a glue like substance that helps keep the stitches from coming
apart. Also goes by names as No Fray, Fray No More... etc. Found some in
Target's sewing section believe it or not.
Not sure if one brand is better than another...

Thank you for your answer. One more question : What is fray check ?
Thanks,

We were told in training to avoid satin stitches over 1/4" wide. Supposedly
there are two 'fills' that simulate satin stitching but stitch down in the
pattern but havent' had time to figure out which ones it is....on lettering
that we think might get loose (satin jackets, etc.) we go over the inside of
the embroidery with Fray check -trace the lettering right down the bobbin
thread from the back. That 'glues' the thread ends together without showing
on the front-and we haven't seen the thread coming loose yet. (a Limo
service showed us his jacket from another shop-wearing it while drivi ng had
pulled all the stitching on the back right off. So far, couple of months-the
one we did and 'sealed' hasn't pulled yet!)
Anything over 1/4" we do with a fill stitch anyways.
