agree  Neil Ashby: ...por separado se usa unicamente como adjetivo.... not being native I'm just suggesting, but to me "separado solo" together looks a bit repetitive and confusing ;@) //I considered posting it as an answer, but "separado" is what really clinches it for me

  -> estoy de acuerdo, buena apreciación... saludos!

agree  JohnMcDove: "Por separado" o "por sí mismo"... W/Neil (that's the clincher!) :-) Salu2!

Federación funciona como un adjetivo cuando se encuentra solo


Explanation:
Cuando un sustantivo pasa a tener función de adjetivo también se dice "adjetivado", por ejemplo "coche cama" donde "cama" se ha adjetivado, hace las funciones de adjetivo o funciona como un adjetivo.
