Let E be a Banach space with the topological dual E *. The aim of this paper is twofold. On the one hand, we prove some basic properties of Hadamard-type fractional integral operators. These results are related to earlier results about integral operators acting on different function spaces, but for the vector-valued case they are of independent interest. Note that we discuss it in a rather general setting. We study Hadamard-Pettis integral operators in both single and multivalued case. On the other hand, we apply these results to obtain the existence of solutions of the fractional-type problem d α x(t) dt α = λ f (t, x(t)), α ∈ (0, 1), t ∈ [1, e], x(1) + bx(e) = h with certain constants λ, b, where h ∈ E and f : [1, e]× E → E is Pettis integrable function such that, for every ϕ ∈ E * , ϕ f lies in an appropriate Orlicz spaces. Here d α dt α stands the Caputo-Hadamard fractional differential operator.
